    Thanks, Randy. You have caught a sort of world premiere, I think. In their 14 years of existence, I don't think there has been a previous video of Tuba Skinny playing 'Hindustan'. I guess it was at the request of Chaz. 'Hindustan' dates from 1918, was composed by Oliver Wallace (lyrics) and Harold Weeks (music), and is played here in the key of B flat. In addition to this 32-bar Chorus, it originally had a 16-bar Verse which (as in this performance) is not usually played these days. As ever, it's amazing to hear what kind of a solo Shaye can fashion (01:40 - 02:16) from this kind of material.

    I think this tune ought to be one of their regular songs, especially if their regular musicians play it like that. Wonderful.

    The way that they are credited on the sheet music for 'Hindustan' leads me to believe that Wallace and Weeks collaborated on the words and collaborated on the music.

    @@axeleast8632 You are probably right, though a Library of Congress website gives the following as propagators of a recording of 'Hindustan' by the 'Jockers Brothers' : Banta, Frank E. -- Instrumentalist -- Piano; Jockers, Albert -- Instrumentalist -- Violin; Weeks, Harold -- Composer; Wallace, Oliver -- Lyricist; Jockers Brothers -- Musical Group. Incidentally, unlike Tuba Skinny and most other bands, the Jockers Brothers included the Verse at the beginning of their recording and even played it a second time later.

    @@PopsCoffee Elsewhere in the Library of Congress it can be found that Hindustan was copyrighted in 1919 as a piano piece by Oliver G. Wallace and Harold Weeks. On a different topic, where are Rawicz and Landauer when you need them?.

    @@axeleast8632 What nostalgia! I remember them well and think I saw them in the flesh at one of the London music halls circa 1948, though memories play tricks. Checking, I was surprised to learn Rawick died as long as 53 years ago.

    NYC radio genius Jean Shepherd played this song often & would sing along with it.

    Hope you recorded James singing a number with them, too. All 3 irregulars are excellent. Halloran's CD ALCOA SESSIONS is quite good.

    Just watched an old video of yours called Goin Home, with Erica singing, and this video popped into my feed.

    As good music as always. I had not seen Chaz sit in with them before. I had seen him with Voices Of Change.

    I was there. Secret 6 Jazz Band plays this song sometimes so it's cool to see Chaz and Tuba skinny playing it.
