"I am the master,Everything you play your own you play Jelly Roll,Morton used to like to say.I am the inventor of jazz.No one thought better about him
than Jelly Roll himself".But his tunes are without a doubt the jazz standards.
And he definetely was is and always will be the master of jazz music.
It's a shame that the other version (which I consider a far superior performance) isn't available on youtube. This is definitely one of my favorite songs of all time though.
Thanks for sharing this piece of musical history :)

There's a different version of this tune where the solos sound much more precise. It's from the Ken Burn's Jazz Album.

The alternate take from the one that was released, the solos are way different, nice to hear them played in a slightly different way.

Jelly Roll had to hire two extra clarinets for this song, which was unusual.
