Fact #49903
When:
Short story:
Paul
Williams records The Hucklebuck, in New York
City, USA, for Savoy Records. The
song is virtually identical to D Natural Blues by Lucky
Millinder And His Band, on RCA
Records. It is believed that Williams first heard it played by
Millinder but he took it into the studio first. Both songs, it
should be noted, bear a great deal of similarity to Now's The Time, recorded for Savoy by Charlie 'Bird'
Parker in 1945.
