  • @cherrrianna me too.. I'm in love with the 20's

  • I wished I'd lived in those times .

  • Princess and the Frog brought me here.

  • cari amici jazzisti di tutto il mondo o semplicemente visitatori di questo canale: questa si può chiamare veramente MUSICA! altro che Lady Gaga! questa è anima vera, parte indispensabile per creare musica jazz! si dia il caso che comunque sia musica blues il derivato del jazz che a tutt' oggi è ancora amato e ascoltato. coloro che osano chiamare "Casino" questo brano non capiscono nulla di musica. non vorrei essere volgare,ma perdinci! c'è ritmo che fa saltare sulla sedia anche a paralitico.

  • what do they say at 2:08?

  • @omarkbrown What is being said is "Oh Play that thing!" Legend has it that there originally was supposed to be a drum break there. However the first time they recorded it the drummer - Baby Dodds - missed it so the banjo player jumped in and shouted , "oh play that thing". That was the take released and every band that has played the song since has shouted the same words when they get to that part of the song. At least that's the legend.

  • This version was not recorded in Richmo0nd, Indiana in April, 1923 or in Chicago in june of 1923. This is not the Creole Jazz Band this is much later re-recorded version by a King Oliver Band line-up later in the 1920s

  • Majestät.....ist Herr Oliver nicht am 11. May 1885 geboren ?

    ORDIX44 grüßt aus DD

  • No--this is the May 29, 1926 version.

  • Princess and the frog!

  • WHERE CAN YOU FIND SHEET MUSIC FOR KING OLIVER??

  • How do we know that this version is from May 1927 and not from June 1923? I'd really like to know more about the original album this specific version was on and more about the sessions that produced this song and the album it was on, if anyone is that knowledgeable about this era.

    I became so sick of the Clone Music Stations that I turned them off. Now I am so happy to have discovered this fresh and original music. It's got a feeling that's outstanding.

  • it's good to hear that so many people enjoy jazz in the 21st century

  • @TheAwesomeVideoMan1 I second that

  • just fantastic

    amazing

    THIS IS JAZZZZZZZZZ!

  • Ol' Satchmo is 4th from the left in his early days in the pic

  • Oh, yes ....

  • I live in Richmond, and was researching the Gennett Records/ Starr Factory and came across this....and was curious was this recorded in Richmond or not? And if not could someone tell me something that was

  • classic

  • First, April, 1923, Oliver & Armsrtong and Creole Jazz Band, Richmond, Ind., Second, June, 1923, Armstrong with Oliver and Creole Jazz Band, Chicago,. Third, 1925, Fletcher Henderson with Armstrong, New York. Fourth, 1925, Jack Hamilton's Orchestra, Germany, released on Vox Records, England. The fifth, May 29, 1926, King Oliver's without Louis Armstrong. Heard here.

  • This is Joe Oliver's later band from 1926, The Dixie Syncopators. Recorded for Brunswick Records. Louis isn't on this. Bob Schoffner plays second cornet. The clarinet solo is by Barney Bigard (pre Ellington days) and of course Joe does his famous three chorus "wa-wa" cornet solo.

  • Louis Armstrong is a GENIUS!

  • Dutrey!

  • and to think louis didn't "read" music.........lol best out there. ty for post

  • The 1923 version is less aggressive and more ensemble based than this 1926 version.Both are marvellous.Armstrong perhaps never played this solo in later years as well as his master and tutor the King did originally

  • This really is "the works". Can't be a better version ever recorded.

    Thank you for sharing this gem.

  • KIng Oliver's Creole Jazz Band first recorded this in 1923. It was co-written with 22 yr-old Louis Armstrong (the new kid on the block).

  • @fillra not co-written. Armstrong didn't compose.

  • thanks for posting! I really enjoyed this famous version!

  • Thankyou, edmundusrex, I hadn't heard this version before.

    redhotjazz  states that it was recorded on May 29 1926.

  • Yes this date is right. Among others are present Kid Ory, Albert Nicholas, Barney Bigard, Luis Russell and Paul Barbarin.

  • This is the May 29 1927 version of Sugar Foot Stomp. King Oliver and his Dixie Syncopators.

  • I'm shure, you're right - thanks.

  • @edmundusrex no "h" in sure
