Jesse Stafford & His Orchestra - I Wanna Go Places And Do Things, 1929
The Jesse Stafford Orchestra was active from 1928 - 1937 as a continuation of the Herb Wiedoeft band (Herb Wiedoeft's Cinderella Roof Orchestra), after Wiedoeft was killed in an automobile accident. In Herb Wiedoeefts orchestra Jesse Stafford was a trombone player.
Herb Wiedoeft came from a musical family - brothers Gerhardt and Adolph were sidemen in his band and brother Rudy was the most famous saxophone player of the late ragtime and early jazz era. Wiedoeft's band had a long engagement at the "Cinderella Roof Ballroo in Los Angeles from which the name of the band's theme song "Cinderella Blues" was derived. A recording contract with Brunswick records and tours to Chicago and New York had made the band nationally known by the time Wiedoeft was killed.
Perfect 20's sound...
