a bientot



Been learning this song on my saw. I first heard it on an old Jim Cullum Jazz Band vinyl recording from 1966. Can't get this song outa my head. Good thing I like it a lot. Started searching for a video of it this morning. Computer kept freezing up. Switched machines. In searching, it seems the song was written by Peanuts Hucko (1918-2003) who just happened to be my brothers neighbor in Denton a while back, Peanuts was a clarinetist who played with all the greats i ncludingGlen Miller, Benny Goodman, Louis Armstrong and Lawrence Welk.
