It premiered in January 1932 with the Ellington big band accompanying singer Ivie Anderson and, soon afterward, it was made famous by Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. Local jazz fans, however, will recognize it as the signature song of the woman known as "The First Lady of New Orleans Jazz," Germaine Bazzle. Born in 1932, ironically the same year the song was first performed and recorded, Germaine has sung the song hundreds—perhaps even thousands—of times over a very long career. And whenever she does, as she will very likely do at her upcoming Jazz Fest gig, she will give it her own distinct interpretation, further jazzing up the lyrics and the scat portions and sometimes even mimicking the sounds of horns with her unique vocal dexterity. Her repertoire of other songs that she also performs live appears to be limitless. Germaine Bazzle will be one of the headliners for opening day of this year's New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival at the Fair Grounds Race Course on Fr OffBeat Magazine
