The stage musical "Blackbirds of 1928" sported an excellent score by lyricist Dorothy Fields and music by Jimmy McHugh, of which "Diga Diga Doo" took the country by storm. This is undoubtedly Nelson Riddle's greatest arrangement and spotlights flashes of Stravinsky within a lightning quick framework. Listen for solos by George Roberts on bass trombone, Harry "Sweets" Edison on muted trumpet, Babe Russin on tenor sax and the ever swinging drummer Alvin Stoller spurring everyone onward to great heights.
