About Sunny Clapp:
"Sunny Clapp, sometimes known as Sonny Clapp, was an accomplished bandleader, composer, arranger, trombonist, clarinetist, and alto saxophonist. He is mainly remembered for having written "Girl of My Dreams," a sweet waltz that was first recorded by Blue Steele & His Orchestra, with whom Clapp worked while leading his own dance band during the late 1920s and very early '30s. Initially a lush vehicle suited to crooners like Gene Austin and Perry Como, this melody was rediscovered during the '40s and '50s by modern jazz players Ike Quebec, Charlie Ventura, Dizzy Gillespie, and Charles Mingus. Despite this important contribution to 20th century music, Clapp's adventures as sideman and bandleader are shrouded in relative obscurity, while his recordings only exist on the blurred margins of availability and recognition." https://hswv.pastperfectonline.com/Ar...
