The Harlem Hamfats was a Chicago jazz band formed in 1936. Initially, they mainly provided backup music for jazz and blues singers, such as Johnny Temple, Rosetta Howard, and Frankie Jaxon for Decca Records,[1] but when their first record “Oh Red” became a hit, it secured them a Decca contract for fifty titles.[2] They launched a successful recording career performing danceable music.

    Very sweet, thanks, I always like the Peggy Lee 'Why don't you do right', which I suspect was borrowed from this.

  6. Lisa Hickson says:

    @joehiggs100 Per Wikipedia, the composer of this song rewrote this song, creating the better known version "Why don't you do right" which was recorded in 1941. Peggy Lee then did her own version in 1942 with Benny Goodman.

  7. Billy Roues says:

    @munkykayse Lil Green recorded Why Don't You Do Right in 1941 with Big Bill Broonzy on guitar.
