Mike Riley & His Round & Round Boys - Decca 1655 (1938)

Every once in a while, I like to go through the packed-away boxes and crates just to see if there are any gems I had passed over or to just search for something that might look interesting.

Found this Decca with a funny song title and gave it a shot. Turns out...to me...to be a catchy swing tune.

Turns out that Riley's biggest claim to fame was composing the 1935 hit The Music Goes Round And Round.
