I've posted a record of this tune before performed by the Dutch Swing College Orchestra. This one is also really good, if a bit scratchier. This is one of LaRocca and Shields' tunes from 1918. Not to be confused with Gershwin's song.

The Dutch Swing College Band (on this record label, Dutch Swing College Orchestra) was one of the great hot bands. I should have posted something by them before now. Apparently they're still around, though not with the same personnel as in 1948. "Fidgety Feet" is one of several hot music standards by LaRocca and Shields. This tune was written no later than 1918. All the hot bands performed it: Kid Ory, Red Allen, Wingy Manone, Bud Freeman, etc.
