Stompy, I love your channel. Beautiful pictures of the labels as well.

[danielbeller972]

As with all ZONOPHONE this is a gem!

[TheMarioluigifans]

AAAAGHHH!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!! YAYAYAYAYA!

[SynapticChaos]

somebody should send this to Fat Boy Slim

[heycaelie]

@SynapticChaos he'd do so much with this.

[GrammophonPlatten]

Richtig Klasse, danke

[vertxxgg]

ganz meshuggener....ragman carols-- happy Xmas und neujahr stompy

[robchalfen]

the yelling is a take on standard minstrel show exclamations

may also be mastered a bit slow

[rodrigocientista]

hahaha WTF is that?!

[LKayL1]

Never heard anything like this! It sounds like a fairground.

[vertxxgg]

in reality JAZZ is Jewish music from eastern europe...in Bessarabia ,Ucraina ,Sebastopol,Odessa,Eupatoria jewish tantz orquestinas make such happy records since 1903...in USA they make the black s to win some dollars playing while they sell it out the records

[Vermontist]

@vertxxgg What an interesting perspective of "reality."

[patoman881]

This has to be the wierdest rag I have ever heard!

[JRussoBuffaloNY]

it is just a parody, relax. meshuga colloquial (Meschugge). ragtime has it's base in marches, and who better to perform a rag(syncopated march) than the militaristic Preußen Empire.

[DoroSusi]

Mir gefällt's! :)

[RahmSifr]

Gute Güte! "Mr. Meschugge" wird hier seinem Namen zweifellos gerecht.

[AvantGardeGuy2]

Wonderfully weird. Reminds me very much of Jelly Roll Morton's 1927 recording of Hyena Stomp.

[KawhackitaRag]

Chauncey Haines wrote a couple other rags, and was later a theatre organist and piano roll artist for the Filmusic Co. of Los Angeles.

Great recording, and very strange! THANKS!!!

[CMarkulis]

Ouha....so etwas aus dieser Zeit kannte ich noch nicht!

[pianolasociety]

ah, the Chauncey Haines "Dixieland" march-twostep, I have the original old printed music for this one! Nice to hear it in a period recording, thanks for posting this!

[lordkrandel]

Hahahahaha

[jazzgirl1920s]

Most interesting to see the word "Dixieland" on a German ragtime record. I also recognize the tune Old Black Joe during this recording.

[kspm01]

Crazy stuff indeed!

[formiggini]

Absolut Meschugge! :)
