That jazz music of that period is still highly enjoyable to listen to today. I prefer the 1920s-mid 1940s jazz.

Thank you! I'm trying to get my videos out there, but it's still slow going lol

I recommend you to make comments on other similar videos and tell people to take a look at your video, so that you can have more viewers. I’m enjoying them. I’m fascinated by this area. 😍

Yeah, I was just worried that people might think I sound desperate if I do that lol XD

You mentioned Buddy Bolden -- who reportedly invented jazz in the early 1900s and of whom there is no recording, though his most famous song "Funky Butt" is known today. At the time in New Orleans, before the city closed the notorious Storyville district down, which it did at the request of the U.S. Navy Department in 1917, jazz music was actually considered scandalous by the (white) city fathers and upper classes and certainly all of the early jazz musicians had to migrate to northern cities before they could really be able to earn a decent living. Buddy Bolden is reportedly buried in Holt Cemetery (which features in-ground burial, unlike all of the other and more famous cemeteries that surround it, and mostly homemade grave markers) here in New Orleans although the site of his grave is not known.

I saw movie about Buddy ... Very unfortunate to be lost

You’ve never lived, until you’ve heard me play “Dueling Banjos”, on one trombone.

Nice work .Thanks for making these videos!

I'd love to see a play list for this or any of your videos.

I noticed that you left out a lot of musicians, particularly bandleaders such as Earl Fuller, Paul Whiteman, Ben Selvin, Isham Jones, Ben Bernie and Hoagy Carmichael that were instrumental in bringing Jazz to the mainstream, and also songwriters such as Irving Berlin and Cole Porter who wrote some of the most popular early jazz songs of the 1920s. That's not getting into the input that the British musicians brought to the genre of Jazz nearly 40 years before the british invasion, such as Jack Hylton, Fred Elizalde, Bert Ambrose, Jack Payne and Debroy Somers of the Savoy Orpheans.

this is great thanks for doing it

Great video tks

Cant forget that another place like Harlem was the black bottom and paradise valley in Detroit.

while the dancing in 06:00 is pretty crazy i much prefer the way the these two move with each other 06:58

Inaccurate and full of serious omissions. Take this source with a grain of salt or two.

But were did all the instruments come from, that the supposedly the blacks pioneered?
