Russian Lullaby

A rough version of Jimmie Rodger's "T for Texas" and some verses of "Rollin and Tumblin".

T for Texas (Jimmie Rodgers cover)

This tune from THE KING OF JAZZ was never recorded commercially. A pity. Great tune sung by Bing over the opening titles. The San Francisco Starlight Orchestra recorded an arrangement compiled by their pianist Alan Hall. Love the interpolations of Rhapsody In Blue.
