Mama Don't Allow It - The Boswell Sisters

Mama Don't Allow It - The Boswell Sisters

2:47

single, 1936

Written by Cow Cow Davenport, more or less

I know this swing song from the incredible Julia Lee version, which unfortunately isn't available on Spotify.  This version, like Lee's, calls out specific instruments, followed by showcase solos by the players of the named instruments.  The Boswell singers are not as bold and brassy as Lee, and this is a decent ragtime rendition but nothing special.  (It's quite possible this is a Connie Boswell solo release, but info on the web is contradictory.)
