Here is another classic from my archives. I had forgotten that I had it, and only found it today when searching for something else!
(Yes, I know, GET ORGANISED!!)
It is far from perfect, but what can one expect when it was recorded 86 years ago and has been re-copied at least twice in my disorganised archive?

used to have this on 78, almost wore it out!

@MoleDFigg Call me crazy, but it seems like the recordings get....I guess I'll call it "muffled" by the "clean-up" software. I really don't mind the surface noise at all; I'd rather have that than lose any of the music.
But mostly, thank you for uploading this for us.

@ajaxmayo No, Look it up Louis Armstrong's mentor was Joe "King" Oliver.

Hi again, MoldD.
I've just checked the excellent redhotjazz site (search for "King Oliver's Jazz Band")and there are two takes of this tune. Yours is the first take. The second one is similar but has less ensemble playing, & therefore has more solos. Well worth a listen.
Also, MoleD, if you Google "Snag It", and use the wiki entry, then look at the references... this video put up by YOU is the first reference. Take a bow!!

Mister MoleDFigg! This is an amazing record! Wow! Thrilling! Wonderful playing, wonderful arrangement!!
Thankyou for the recording and also the photographs.
I would have loved to have danced to this in a Chicago club in the 1920s with King Oliver's band playing on the stage, doing a 25 minute version (any longer and I would be out of breath).

Is it me or there is a few seconds missing at the end?

Yes, I'm afraid that YouTube seem to clip the endings sometimes -don't know why!!

Fabulous. Thanks. Funny thing though, have you been running this through some fancy cleanup software? I thought they were still acoustic recordings in 1922. This sounds electrical.

Yes, it was 'cleaned up' a little (using Audacity software), just to get rid of the surface noise from years of playing using steel needles!
