Thanks, Bob. I was just trying to check this out for myself to make sure I
hadn't been mistaken.

BTW, that NPR page with the extended interview with Artie Shaw is at:
http://www.npr.org/programs/morning/features/2002/mar/shaw/

And the official Artie Shaw site is at http://www.artieshaw.com/index.htm .

Beguilingly and benignly beginning the Beguine,
Sandra
