Not My Victrola



240252 posted a real treat on YouTube; an unpublished version of "Charleston" by Paul Whiteman in 1925. Be sure to watch the great slide show that goes with this song. Is it just my brain, or is the clarinet part that starts at 2:01 one of the best moments in all of musical history?

Below is another take (This is the familiar published version.) with dancing instructions. I gotta work on this.
