This is Long’s earlier and less frequently reissued version of “Shanty Town,” which he would record twice for the Decca label during the 1940s. It became his signature tune and reappeared in a new and somewhat brighter-sounding remake six years later (listen here: • 1946 HITS ARCHIVE: In ... ).
Transferred from the original 78rpm: Decca 3409 - In A Shanty In Old Shanty Town (Little-Siras-Young) by Johnny Long & his Orchestra, with vocal ensemble, recorded September 12, 1940
