[Trombone-l] The Sliphorn King of Polaroo (1945)

[Stan Brager]

I agree from the aspect of a cartoon, Bill, and I thought that you'd enjoy
this version of "Lover". I'm not certain, but I think that the firm version
is later than the Jump recording of "Lover" which Jack did on February 21,
1950 with Charlie Lavere's Chicago Loopers. That's the gold standard as far
as I'm concerned.
