Guy Lombardo may have been the first to record "Bei Mir Bist Du Sheyn",
but I doubt anyone would want to hear it twice.
The absolute swingin'-est version of "Bei Mir Bist Du Sheyn" was
recorded, not by the Andrews Sisters (whose version has merit) but by
the late, great
bluesman, " Mister Five By Five", Jimmy Rushing (o"h) --with Victor
Feldman on piano.
<Nec plus ultra>. <S'iz nisht du vus tsu redn>.
(Ella Fitzgerald's version is pretty good, too. ).
