My family has an original 78 Spike Jones spoof of this recording. I could only find it recorded with Love in Bloom. Such silly fun stuff.

Thanks so much for this Luis Prima original recording, David.

Radio

I left it
on when I
left the house
for the pleasure
of coming back
ten hours later
to the greatness
of Teddy Wilson
"After You've Gone"
on the piano
in the corner
of the bedroom
as I enter
in the dark


from New and Selected Poems by David Lehman
