BOB DYLAN SINGS JIMMY McHUGH

 
Searching around the internet we discovered that Bob Dylan has performed Jimmy McHugh's 'I'm In The Mood For Love' in concert a number of times over the years. 
It is exactly what you would expect a Dylan version of 'I'm In The Mood For Love' to sound like, complete with harmonica and the kind of slight Crosby-esque croon he used on his album 'Self Portrait'.

Unfortunately, as of yet, we haven't  been able to track down a recording of Mr. Dylan performing the song. Instead we decided to treat you to a somewhat different version of the tune as performed by the iconic 'Little Rascal star, Carl 'Alfalfa' Switzer.
The song was featured in a 1936 'Our Gang Comedy' short.

It been said (also on the internet) that I'm In The Mood For Love is Alfalfa's signature song.

Here's the link.

Enjoy!
