ORIGINAL DIXIELAND JASS BAND ON VICTOR 18255

  • Titles are 'Dixie Jass Band One-Step’ b/w 'Livery Stable Blues'................................................The ODJB released the song as a Victor 78 in 1917 as 18255-A on the Victor Talking Machine Company of Camden, New Jersey. The B side was the landmark jazz song "Livery Stable Blues". The personnel on the recording were Nick LaRocca (cornet), Larry Shields (clarinet), Eddie Edwards (trombone), Henry Ragas (piano), and Tony Sbarbaro (drums). The ODJB initially auditioned for Columbia Records. A month after the audition, the band began recording for Victor. They made recordings on February 26, 1917. The first jazz record released was Victor 18255, which featured "Dixieland Jass Band One-Step" as the A side, "Composed and played by Original Dixieland 'Jass' Band", backed by "Livery Stable Blues". The "one-step" designation on one label was changed to "fox trot" on another label. The phrase "For Dancing" appeared to the right of the spindle hole on both sides of the disc. Following lawsuits, Victor changed the label of both sides of the release. The inclusion in "Dixieland Jass Band One-Step" of a strain from Joe Jordan's 1909 "That Teasin' Rag" resulted in a suit for copyright infringement. The earliest copies of the first ODJB disc do not cite Jordan's rag but later copies noted "Introducing 'That Teasin' Rag'". The title on side A of the disc was changed to "Dixie Jass Band One-Step." Posters promoting the band's live concerts in 1921 added that Victor 18255 featured the song "Ramblin' Blues"--"Dixie Jass Band One-Step". For the second pressing of side B, "Livery Stable Blues Composed and played by the Original Dixieland Jass Band" omitted the phrase "Composed and played by".
  • Here are the details:
  1. The record is in E- condition.

  2. The labels are fine

  3. Shipping prices are $7.39. As many of you know, I have recently made the move to Canada. Despite higher postage charges I have committed to keep these costs roughly in line with those in the US even if it means that I make a small loss. All packages will be sent by airmail with tracking and my experience so far is that there has been no delay apart from on a few occasions and some parcels are getting through quicker than US media mail. Rates other than to the US will be advised separately.

  4. Full refund is given for any reason if goods are returned within 10 days of receipt
