Sunrise Serenade: On The Sunny Side Of The Street

Considering the blanket of snow Memphis and the Mid-South received last night, the lyrics of this morning's Sunrise Serenade might serve as appropriate driving instructions.  Just direct your feet "On The Sunny Side Of The Street" by the Benny Goodman Sextet with Peggy Lee on vocals.  Click on the song title to listen courtesy of Jazz On Line.
