As the title suggests, the piece follows a twelve-bar blues form in the key of C major. The song is well-known for being extremely easy to play, with the entire melody featuring only two notes: G and C. The piece typically features several improvised solos. The final solo continues in the upper register as the entire ensemble comes in and the music grows to a climax. The melody likely originated from the clarinetist Barney Bigard in 1941, but its origin is not perfectly clear.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.jazzstandards.com/compositions-1/cjamblues.htm )〕 It was also known as "Duke's Place", with lyrics added by Bill Katts, Bob Thiele and Ruth Roberts Western Swing band leader Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys recorded the song sometime between mid-1945 through 1947 as part of the Tiffany Transcriptions.〔San Antonio Rose.
