Louis Prima's recording from 1945 notably missing
According to this source, it was released on the Majestic label in February 1945 with Bell Bottom Trousers as the B side.
http://78discography.com/Majestic.htm
Caldonia was performed and recorded time and again over the next 30 years by Prima and Sam Butera and the Witnesses, it was one of his signature songs and was included on his 1973 Just a Gigolo album

Prima's version of "Caldonia" was released as the flip side of "Bell-Bottom Trousers", but only the latter song reached the charts. It's not mentioned in Boulard's
[1] nor AllMusic's
[2] biographies. AM reviews of albums on which it appears, including Just a Gigolo, do not include any mention of the song beyond listing it as an album track. Also, a googlebook search for "Louis Prima + caldonia + signature"
[3] did not show any books that discuss it as such. Without reliable sources that show that his version is noteworthy, there is really nothing to add to the article and it doesn't appear to meet

Perhaps the song is much older than is indicated by this article
Her version appears to be another song with completely different lyrics. It's not unusual for a later song to have a similar or exactly the same title as an earlier one, but have no apparent connection between the two. To note Wallace's song in the article requires a reliable source which actually discusses it in relation to the Moore/Jordan composition. —
