This is for "michange3141592" who is reading Mezzrow's book "Really the Blues" at the moment, I was going to post my old 78 of Mezzrow playing "Really the Blues" but discovered that Bob Erwig had already posted it!
So, here is the other side!
The line-up is:- Tommy Ladnier, tpt; Sidney Bechet, sop. sax; Mezz Mezzrow, clt; Cliff Jackson, pno; Teddy Bunn, gtr; Elmer James, bss; and Manzie Johnson, dms. (Cliff Jackson, by the way, was married to Maxine Sullivan, the singer).
Der war auch in Deutschland udn Frankreich in der 20ern, Amerika war damals noch sehr rassistisch

Sehr faszinierend,. Man hat den Eindruck, dass Ladnier in Europa populärer als in den USA ist, was sicherlich an der Empfehlung durch Bechet liegt.

Never knew who the Man was until I was walking in a grave yard A came across this head stone that looked out of place it was black with gold writing on it and a trumpet on it told a photo.

The clarinet player from 1:00 to the end is Bechet while Mezzrow is on tenor throughout.

Awesome indeed. The joint jumps. I kinda think the guitar comes in and sows things down tho. But still love this scratches and all. Much thanks for posting. Wish there were 5 more stars to give it.
