King Oliver is één van mijn favorieten, Zijn muziek is onsterfelijk. Veel van de crew hebben wereldfaam gemaakt, namen zijn algemeen bekend en worden nog steeds zeer gewaardeerd.
Classic King Oliver along with the greats of New Orleans jazzmen. Johnny Dodds at his very best!! Thank you so much for taking me back to where I always wanted to be - playing in New Orleans and learning from the best. J

Hello, This style is known as "classic jazzwhich is another term for the music that was recorde by the New Orleans greats that migrated to Chicago.
New Orleans jazz would be the music of Bunk Johnson, George Lewis, Kid Thomas etc which had a renaissance after Bill Russell (later of American Music), recorded Bunk in the 40's. This sparked a whole new movent in traditional jazz, including the "trad boom" in the UK..
It sounds silly, but I just had a huge argument with a girl about ridiculous, meaningless things. Even so I was feeling pretty down when I came to the computer, but as soon as I put on some King Oliver my spirits were lifted and I was engrossed. It's just, one of the reasons I love this music - it never ceases to make me happy.
You show photos of the Brunswick label, but this is definitely the Gennett version of this song. Was the same '23 version later reissued on Brunswick?
This is one of my all time favourite recordings. I only wish I had it on 78 myself instead of only on CD or 33rpm! Definately one of my "Desert Island Discs"! Thanks for posting it. Susie
The last photo shows Louis Armstrong kneeling at the front, and for fun he's playing a slide trumpet (a rare instrument, almost a novelty instrument these days) . He never used it for recording.
This song is FABULOUS!! LOVE IT! So much I tracked it down at my local library internet search and have a cleaned up copy of this tune. So much history in this group and to think they recorded this in Richmond, IN about an hour from where I live. Great beat and fun dance tune. Thanks for the like to this place jazzionado!
Another point of interest is that, I don't think Johnny St Cyr was on these recordings because he had not moved North to Chicago at that time.He also denied his own presence here. These Gennett recordings were made in Richmond,Indiana.(This one 21st May,1923)It is also thought that there was no bass (not audible) and banjo was played either by Bud Scott or Bill Johnson.Whoever,they still made wonderful music!!
This has got to be a "must have" in anybody's jazz collection. Wonderful stuff. I never tire of it.If you want more Clive,let me know as I have all of Oliver's Creole Jazz Band recordings.Cheers!!
Lovely quarter note triplets in the trumpet, and bass lines on the banjo!

One of my favorites but it's Bill Joihnson on banjo. He couldn't use his bass as the harmonics were too much for the Gennet recording equipment.
Bud Scott played only on the early Okeh Oliver recordings,Johnny St.Cyr on the rest.
