The Sioux City Journal has the song appearing on the January 8th Coca-Cola
Spotlight Bands broadcast.

Hi Richard,
Some years ago, I blew up the Harrison Carrol column and
posted to the list.
I also included the song he had just finished with his cousin Ray Sinatra. I
don't recall
the title. I am assuming he sang both of them on Dorsey broadcasts. They
obviously
did not create much interest at the time. I have an interview Frank did in the
late 1940s
where he begs amateurs to leave the song writing to the professionals.
Ed

In December 1941, the papers talk of Mickey Rooney and Frank collaborating on a
song called "My Best Gal".

I assume nothing ever materialised?
