"Rockin' in Rhythm" was composed by Duke Ellington for the famous Fan Dancer, Sally Rand, who wowed them at the Chicago World's Fair (a.k.a., A Century of Progress) in 1933. In other words, despite the bright tempo, it is strip music.

Love seeing Baritone saxophonist Harry Carney leading the sax section on his clarinet as they stand in front of the band after the piano intro...

Greatest reed section of all time and place! Fascinating look, too, at the Duke's hands--what are those ghost chords he's playing? One never knows, do one?
