Yes indeed.  From what  I've heard from Albert, he likes to do a "tip o'
the hat"to the tune "Topsy, Part II" by Cozy Cole--an excellent drumming
intsrumental.
That and "I play the Drums" is modelled loosely on
"S(w)ing,S(w)ing,S(w)ing"
--the excellent big band number.

(watch all the
BOC-Ler minds scrambling for a kickin' Bouchard tune for them to do)
