"St. James Infirmary Blues" is an American blues song and jazz standard of uncertain origin. The song was made famous by a 1928 recording by Louis Armstrong on which Don Redman was credited as composer; later releases gave the name Joe Primrose (a pseudonym of Irving Mills). In 1961, Bobby "Blue" Bland released a version as the flip side of his No. 2 R&B hit "Don't Cry No More" and it is included on his 1962 album "Two Steps from the Blues".
