No Sir, That's Not My Girl - Jack Hylton's Kit Cat Band (Al Starita) - HMV B.5128

This is a fun flapper song! It was written in response to the popular hit "Yes Sir, That's My Baby". Some fine playing by the Kit-Cat Band on this side.

A great charleston beat, with drive and verve, wonderful.

Are the Kit-Kat's named after Jack's band?

[@JonathanHolmesjazz]

@@alternateunreleasedshellac505 nope. Named after the Kit Cat Club which operated in London in the Haymarket

[@alternateunreleasedshellac505]

@@JonathanHolmesjazz so Jack Hylton named it after that?

[@JonathanHolmesjazz]

@@alternateunreleasedshellac505 no the club was a separate establishment and Jack Hylton provided the band which was led by Al Starita. There’s a good write up of the club here: www.jazzageclub.com/the-kit-cat-club/1564/
