Some personnel corrections to note:

1. Although he doubled on clarinet and tenor sax on two other recordings on this date ("If It Isn't Love" and "Breakin' The Ice"), Gene Sedric played only clarinet on these sides.

2. Although Harry Dial played drums on both sides, he played vibes only on "I'm Growing Fonder Of You".

Bill Coleman's account of this session is published in Laurie Wright's excellent book ""Fats' In Fact". Much whiskey was consumed, along with a big meal at lunch when studio techs tried to repair a broken reed in the pipe organ. Despite not knowing which songs would be recorded beforehand, and never seeing the music before the session started, Fats sounds like he'd been playing them all his life and his musicians are all in the groove with him.

HMV MH-52 - original labels added (Made in England in italics), plus a later variant of the B-side, with publishers logos as on the next main type (MADE IN ENGLAND), which is already present. - Most likely this issue was for general export and not aimed at Portugal.
