Coleman Hawkins - I wish that I was Twins


"... We now see the 1935 performance of Coleman Hawkins announcing and playing two full chorusses of "I wish I were Twins". This was a tune recorded and made popular by Fats Waller in 1934 and Coleman gave it his best with Leo de la Fuente on piano. I think this is a most unique piece of early jazz history on film."
