Misirlou and the 4077th

If you've seen Pulp Fiction, then you're probably aware of "Misirlou". Quentin Tarantino used it for the open theme, specifically Dick Dale's surf music-inspired version:

And, if you some how missed that, you'll probably be familiar with that version due to the Black Eyed Peas' "Pump It", which seems to just be the Dick Dale track playing with the Black Eyed Peas singing over top of it:

But what you might not know is that "Misirlou" is a traditional folksong from the Mediterranean region and has an extensive history that you can read about on Wikipedia, but the gist of the song's history is as follows:
“Misirlou” (Greek: Μισιρλού) means “Egyptian girl,” derived from the Turkish Mısırlı (“Egyptian”), and reflects the song’s Middle Eastern origins. The folk melody emerged in the Eastern Mediterranean during the Ottoman Empire and was shared among Arabic, Greek, and Jewish musicians by the 1920s. The earliest known recording was made in 1927 by Greek rebetiko musician Tetos Demetriades, who popularized the title “Misirlou.” Originally a slow tsifteteli dance tune, it spread widely across the region and became claimed as a folk song by many cultures. In 1941, Greek-American musician Nick Roubanis arranged a jazz version and credited himself as the composer, later joined by lyricists Chaim Tauber, Fred Wise, and Milton Leeds in producing an English-language version. The song subsequently became an “exotica” standard of the swing and lounge era, with recordings by artists such as Harry James, Jan August, and Darío Moreno contributing to its enduring international popularity.

That said, I think I've found my favorite version. While rewatching the series M*A*S*H, I stumbled across a rendition performed by the character Trapper John during the last scene of the Season 3 episode "Private Charles Lamb":
