That has a really nice sound to it. Sort of distant and cavernous. Good song and a fine collaboration too.

The dancers are doing a "Jitterbug" instruction demo (forerunner to the Jive) from 1944 - my Mum was a Jitterbug dancing Champ in 1944, she danced with the American GI's based in her town in WW2...i'll have to get her to show me a few moves, tho' she's aged 88 now and not quite as lively now...!
