This is the cats' pajamas all right! Thanks for uploading this amazing recording. It is the All-Star Band for 1926, with Dorsey, Bix, Tram, Joe Venuti, Spiegle Wilcox in the band. The late Spiegle Wilcox I heard at the Sacramento Jazz Festival a few years back. He was still playing at the age of 97!

Another great tune. Question: Are you gonna try to put recordings made in 1911, to the day, say in March. Also will you eventually put 1900's, 1901's and older, end of 1800,S? I seem to recal that you had some?

@borden1957 Thanks for your interest and questions. No, I won't be going backwards and posting older songs for the most part. I've posted most of the oldest ones I have. I try to post chronologically with the music so all the next ones will be from the 1920's, then the 1930's.

This, of course, includes Mr. (Bix) Beiderbecke, leading the trumpet/brass ensembles. Bix has NO solos, but one can hear his leadership, in certain parts.

@ThePeaceableKingdom Yes, it was quite a band! Thanks so much for noticing the work I put into the description under the video as well. Some forget to read them, but I spend a considerable amount of time researching, verifying info. and writing my own descriptions, to try and make them as interesting as possible. Posting music in a proper way to do justice to the recordings takes time,but I love doing it.

Great tune! Never heard this one before (well, I suppose there's alot I've never heard before!) And what a band, as you say! I don't keep track of sessions and who played what when, and there are names I don't recognize, but Trumbauer, Beiderbecke, Venuti, Lang, Goldkette, and T.Dorsey... They're all huge! I suspect some of the names I don't know are as well. Great tune and good useful notes in the description. Labor of love... Thanks for posting this.
