The 1934 Reginald Foort recording is far superior in terms of its clarity, but it appears to be only in the public domain in the UK, not the US? I would prefer to upload this and feature it as the lead recording, but it doesn't look like we are allowed to do that?
Schaum's arrangement for piano in 1951, followed by B. Vito (1955) and Weber (1958), indicates to me that this interest was part of the theatre organ revival of the 1950s. I still don't know who Vito and Weber are, but the recordings of the song increased during this time, with a popular box set featuring the song released in the early 1970s. This is somewhat interesting, as the theatre organ revival of the 1950s happened again in the 1970s on a smaller scale. There does not seem to be anything written about this on Wikipedia. Furthermore, the organ recording of the tune in this box set is insanely good, so it is highly unfortunate we cannot give readers a taste of how fun this tune really is without an external link. The silent film, circus, amusement park, baseball, and parade feeling comes right through. It captures an entire era.
