Bob1951 26th May 2019		A side B side



paneity 30th Jul 2017		Both sides were recorded on 15 March 1940 in Chicago. "Concerto For Cootie" was written by Ellington for his then lead trumpet player Cootie Williams. Later that year, Williams left Ellington for Benny Goodman, prompting Raymond Scott to write the song "When Cootie Left the Duke". In 1943, Bob Russell wrote words for "Concerto For Cootie", and it became "Do Nothing Till You Hear From Me", which spent 8 weeks at the top of the Billboard R&B charts in early 1944.
