"Cherry" is in a medium dance tempo, with a easy, lilting quality and some nice sax soli sections. Tommy Dorsey is on #trumpet and takes a brief solo. Not sure who the #sax soloist is. An ID would be welcome. #jazz.

One of the most well-known interracial #jazz recordings, with Jimmie Rodgers and the Armstrongs. Despite the different labels put on their music, they mesh perfectly.
