Hoyt was a one of a kind, know of a couple popular Rock and Roll groups from the late 60's, early 70's would have not been as much with out his songs.

Yeah it was Krupa.  Ma mistake.  Rich played with Dorsey.  They were both great.

Hoyt ranks high in ma book.  He had style.

A lot of those guys played in various bands.  Like Bunny Berrigan and Harry James on lead horn.  Sometimes it's hard ta tell who's who.

The Dorsey band did this one too, but I like Benny's better.  I think it's Bunny on the trumpet...

Believe it's Martha Tilton. As far as the horn blower, sounds like Harry James's style, but I don't remember when he left Benny to start his own band. Unless it's an earlier recording used for the movie. Otherwise, Ziggy Elman would be my next guess.................Buck 8) ::)

Ziggy did it with the Tommy Dorsey Band. 

I missed the "l" in Tilton, sorry Martha.

I enjoy that Big Band music. They always play the WW2 vintage stuff at the CAF AirSho at Midland.

I always enjoyed the Ventures music. I listened to a lot of that surf and instrumental stuff in the early 60s.

It does say any other durn thing ya want up there, so...
Been introducing Spud ta the classic toons.  Wanted im ta know that Daffy was not intended ta be tha anal retentive snotwad they made him out ta be in later years.  Now this is stuck in ma head, an mebbe an can get it stuck in yers too.  Link is below...

My name is Daffy Duck
:I worked on a merry-go-round
:The job was swell
:I did quite well
:Till the merry-go-round broke down (Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo! ...)
:The guy that worked with me
:Was a horse with a lavender eye
:Around in whirls we'd wink at girls
:Till the merry go round broke down
:Up and down
:And round it we sped
:That dizzy pace
:Soon went to my head
:Now you know why I'm dizzy
:And do the things I do
:I am askew and you'd be too
:If the merry go round broke down
:If the merry go round broo-o-o-oke down

:Oh people call me Daffy
:They think that I am goony
:Just because I'm happy is no sign I'm looney tooney
:Oh when they say I'm nutsy
:It sure gives me a pain
:Please pass the ketchup I think its going to rain
:Oh you can't bounce a meatball
:Though try with all your might
:Turn on the radio I want to fly a kite
:Good evening friends

Yep, That's why they called him Daffy.  You need to add some of the old Bugs and Elmer stuff too.
