Description:
This composition has also functioned as St James Infirmary Blues and Gambler's Blues. It is based on a traditional American melody, which in turn derives from an eighteenth-century English song also known under the titles Unfortunate Rake, Unfortunate Lad and The Young Man Cut Down in His Prime. The arrangement was made in 1927 by Irving Harold Mills (pseud. Goody Goodwin or Joe Primrose), an American musician, journalist and lyricist born in Odessa on 16 January 1894.
