We know of George Gershwin for his incredible show tunes and songs as well as a host snappy orchestra/piano pieces. There is a lot of other things that are just plain clever and fun. The first here "Walking the Dog" was a segment theme song on WQXR the late great radio station of the NYTimes and the second "Buzzin the Bees" is just a handfull of notes...more notes than anyone has fingers. Last is the Kangaroo Hop (what else could it be called) and is something of a spoof on Alexander's Ragtime Band.
They are just fun to listen to.
