Riverside Blues -- King Oliver 1923

Canal Street Blues - King Oliver

Here's another real 'oldie' from my collection of 78's. Recorded at the Gennett studios (I think) in 1923. The line-up is :- Joe "King" Oliver; 1st. cornet. Louis Armstrong; 2nd cor. Honore Dutrey; tmb. Johnny Dodds; clt. Bill Johnson; bss. Lil Hardin/Armstrong; pno. Baby Dodds; dms. and Johnny St.Cyr; bjo.
Due to the interest shown, and the number of views, generated by my previous posting of this band, I thought another might be appreciated.
