Louis Jordan had the best known recording of Caldonia - it fits his big boisterous sound. Jordan also did a lot of bebop influence swing tunes, including Just a Gigalo, Rag Mop, and Ain't Nobody Here but us Chickens.

Both Woody and Joe have recordings of "Caledonia" out. I have ripped two versions of Woody Herman doing it, one is about 3 minutes long and the other is a more boogie-woogie style extended version of 7:14 length.
I've also got a killer version of a different "Caledonia" by Robin Trower.
Want them?

Louis Jordan wrote it and sang it.
