First recorded by Bix Beiderbecke and The Wolverines in 1924, the piece was Carmichael's first composition and it would become a Dixieland standard. Carmichael would go on to write many popular jazz standards, including "Stardust" (1927), "Georgia on My Mind" (1930), and "Lazy River" (1931).[1] Beiderbecke and the Wolverines released the song as a Gennett 78 record (5454-A, Matrix #11854 524). Beiderbecke also recorded a second version of the song in 1927 with Frankie Trumbauer and His Orchestra, which was released as an Okeh Records 78 (40822).
