He recorded it as "KoKo" -- the usual bebop practice of taking a standard
tune, using its chord progressions but writing a new, angular melody, and
playing it at machine gun demisemiquaver tempo.

>>>> Think it's part of the Smithsonian jazz collection but have lent my copy to a friend with a functioning turntable so can't check. If I remember rightly the original composer Ray Noble was not mentioned on the record label.
