Your rendition of "Sit Right Down and..." brought back memories of my Army days. Back in January of '58 I was transferred to the Guided Missile Corporal School in El Paso (Ft. Bliss). Well, we met a piano player named Milton Luce, formed a trio on the base, and that was our theme song for a few months, until I shipped out to Germany with the unit...and left Milton, who loved that song, behind. He claimed he had written it, but I new he was a bit young (22) to claim it.

We had a Special Services Quintet...mostly jazz number...when we finally settled in Nurenberg in June of 57....but still played that same song, with a jazz feel.

When I first started out playing music out of high school, with a college-age Dixieland band in Chicago, back in '53, we also played "...write myself a letter" with a New Orleans Style...I was on banjo then. In subsequent years I transmogrified into Diz/Charlie Parker/Miles Davis, etc. music!
The song works!!! In another quartet, our piano player doubled beautifully on Accordian, and played it in a groovey swing style!! Got me hummin' the tune again with your fine rendition of it and Sugar!

By the way, my Cairne Terrier, "Tiger", sends his best Scottish regards!! He's seven and a hand-full, like most Scotts I've known.!! Take care of yourself!!!
