What is the definitive version of Benny Goodman's
Sing, sing, sing on standard 10 inch 78?
I've seen the two sided 12 inch version.
I want one to put in a jukebox!
Thanks, Raven

Raven, and all,
Afraid I can't answer that--only come up with another question--Was the 12 in version labeled "part 1" and "part 2"--that's what runs in my mind---Ron Rich

That's the right one. He recorded it at 8min, 43seconds
On a 12inch 78rpm. It took both sides!
I'm hoping there's a condensed 3min.
Version on a 10 inch 78. I'd like to play it
On the 1426 rockola. Think it would sound
Pretty cool. Is there such a version?
Thanks for reply! George Raven

Wow--I really can not tell you, but I would bet it was on 10 inch also--
Do you know how long ago I saw that 12 inch copy--?? It was my Grandpa's record--he loved it, and probably wore it out in the 1950's---

I have a 10" version, so I know it exists.
I can't get to the records right now, so I can't get you a record number.
