This side was produced in New York City on March 5th 1931 by "Ted Lewis & His Band" featuring Ted Lewis director & speech, Muggsy Spanier trumpet, George Brunies trombone, Benny Goodman clarinet, and Thomas "Fats" Waller piano & vocals.

*"Dallas Blues" was composed by Hart A. Wand, with lyrics by Lloyd Garret.

On a recording released as "Ted Lewis & His Band" George Brunies, Muggsy Spanier and Benny Goodman join Thomas "Fats" Waller in a performance peppered with spoken introjection from their renown session leader.

Ted Lewis is definitely present, but thankfully for everyone has nothing to do with playing the actual music.
