    Very Nice indeed. This Live version is 50 seconds longer than the two
    issued recordings and does not have a short male chorus break near
    the end.

    recordings of this song by Peggy Lee were made for Capitol on Dec 27,
    1944, at C. P. MacGregor Studios, 729 South Western Avenue, Los
    Angeles, CA.; first issued on Capitol 197, released in Apr 1945; going
    by matrix numbers it seems an alternative take from this session was
    issued on Capital 15277 in Oct 1948

    at the 1944 session: Peggy Lee (vocal) with Dave Barbour AHO:
    Henry J."Heinie" Beau, Harold Lawson, Maury Stein (cl), Billy May
    (t),Dave Barbour (g),Artie Shapiro (b),Milt Raskin (p),Nick Fatool (d)

    "You Was Right, Baby"

    apart from a V-Disc, this was the first record credited to Peggy Lee
    as the main artist; previously she sang for Benny Goodman's band
    from August 1941, as a replacement for Helen Forrest, to the Spring
    of 1943 when she married Dave Barbour, a guitarist in Goodman's band.
    Lee then temporarily retired from performing to raise a daughter with
    Barbour. Capitol 197 was her come back record.

    with Benny Goodman, Peggy Lee had a smash hit with
    "Why Don't You Do Right" in 1942-43 (rec. NYC, July 27, 1942): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSpgTew7iE0 The78Prof
