Wow, that Real Audio link still works after all these years. The Jim Kweskin Jug Band recorded a nifty cover of Ukelele Lady. Speaking of nifty covers, I have a tattered copy of the sheet music, dated MCMXXV--a barefoot flapper on the beach with palm trees, ocean liner, and sunset in the background. Inset is a photo of two dapper vaudevillians with the legend "Featured by Correll & Gosden".
Anyway, as to the authorship of Ukelele Lady: Words by Gus Kahn Music by Richard A. Whiting
