Eddie Condon - Fidgety Feet. :D  [youtube]wSM_gLiQfUE[/youtube] :clinkSome good ol' Dixieland. I hate it when people try to say Jazz is Black music. Yeah right! I believe the Original Dixieland Jass Band did the original version of Fidgety Feet if I am not mistaken. They were also the first Jazz band to record and the first jazz band to actually use the word jazz in their name. At first they spelled it Jass but they changed it because people used to scratch out the J on posters and such :roflSo they started spelling it Jazz. The reason they call that style of music Dixieland is also because of them. This is the first jazz recording ever made....this song was recorded way back in 1917.     Livery Stable Blues  by  the Original Dixieland Jass Band (yes, they're all White:)).

In the 1950s he started writing numerous vehement letters to newspapers, radio, and television shows, stating that he was the true and sole inventor of jazz music, and  that those who claimed that the music had Negro origins were part of a  Communist  conspiracy .     La Rocca may have inadvertently done much damage to his own reputation, especially in some of his  statements which are unusually racist even when compared to interviews with other white southerners born in the late 19th century  :rofl He sure didn't like people saying jazz was Black music either I can see.
