At one point it says that the music was by Hubert W. David, and at another that that the "song" (I presume is meant only the music) is by Worton David, his dad I think. It's pointed out that Hubert was only 17, but that's plenty old enough to write a tune, especially if one's dad is a composer, so that's not ''proof'' that Hubert didn't write it. Did Worton write it and give credit to his son? Absent a good indication of that, we generally go with what's written on the document, although if there's reasonable doubt we should mention that.
"Felix Kept On Walking" was recorded in the 1920s by [[Clarkson Rose]], the [[Jack Hylton|Jack Hylton Orchestra]], the [[Savoy Havana Band]], [[Ena Baga]], [[Joe Loss|Joe Loss and his Orchestra]] (as part of a medley), [[Reginald Dixon]] (also as part of a medley), [[Stanley Kirkby]], and others, including the Original Capitol Orchestra, the Two Gilberts, the Pigmy Orchestra, Harry Faye, George Berry, and Eric Smart. A version by [[The Big Ben Banjo Band]] (with the Michael Sammes Singers) was recorded and released much later, in 1964. A revival band, Nicholas D. Ball's Savoy Havana Band, has included the song in its repertoire in the 21st century, playing an instrumental version at the Whitley Bay Jazz Festival in 2022.<ref name=YouTube>{{cite AV media |people= |first=Jonathan |last=Holmes |date=2022 |title=Felix Kept On Walking - Nicholas D.
