Thomas J. "Tommy" Ladnier (May 28, 1900 -- June 4, 1939) was an American jazz trumpeter. Clarinetist/writer Mezz Mezzrow rated him second only to Louis Armstrong.
Ladnier moved to New Orleans in his youth. He was influenced by early New Orleans trumpet/cornet players Bunk Johnson and Joe "King" Oliver. About 1919 he moved to Chicago, where he started making records in 1924. In 1926 he moved to New York City to join the Fletcher Henderson Orchestra. Two years later Ladnier toured Europe with Sam Wooding's band, then returned to the States to rejoin Fletcher Henderson, and then played in Noble Sissle's Orchestra, with whom he again toured Europe. In the 1930s Ladnier co-led a band with Sidney Bechet called The New Orleans Feetwarmers, with whom Ladnier made some of his best recordings.

What is there to dislike?

Incidentally, "Weary Blues" was written in 1915 by Artie Matthews; Scott Joplin's publisher John Stark offered prize money to any of his staff composers who could come up with something to rival W. C. Handy's monster hit "St. Louis Blues." This tune won and I can see why, particularly from this rendition.
