Masterpiece! This was a very hip arrangement back then ; Thomas Dorsey's composition was all major and all in the same tempo. Raymond Rasberry came up with that bluesy new arrangement, shifting tempos and keys. They'd kill with it in person. When Marion sang that amazing obligatto, she'd Suzy Q from left to right and back. About then (1951), white southern quartets starting recording the Wards' songs. One of their greatest! And doesn't James Herbert Francis pump that organ!
