Bob Pierce, “Etiquette Blues”

Should you be in the mood for a 1920s novelty number.

Six Jumping Jacks’ covered it too, as the B-side to “C.O.N.S.T.A.N.T.I.N.O.P.L.E”:

No, not this “Constantinople”:

The Four Lads came along 30 years later. We’re talking 1920s novelty records:

Waring’s Pennsylvanians, don’tcha know, with “I’ve Never a Straight Banana.” 

Alright, we’ll split the difference with Harry Roy from 1939:

“She Had to Go and Lose It at the Astor,” goshdarn it.  Quite saddened by it, too.

Six Jumping Jacks, “Nagasaki”

If other versions of “Nagasaki” have left you wondering about the lyrics, the vocalist for this rendition spells it out. And a hoppin’ cover with all manner of banjo flourishes. It even opens with a gong. So, really, you should listen to this.

"The way they entertain Would hurry a hurricane. Down in Nagasaki, Where the fellers chew tobacky, And the women wicky-wacky woo."
