audio fjasband1916 sound 2004-06-07 23:42:16 Collins and Harlan This cylinder is a transcription, taken from a diamond disc. What is important about the recording is that it is the recording to mention the word Jazz. Now in the spelling of the time they wrote Jas, and of course this led to Jass, and finally to the spelling that is known throughout the world Jazz. What is interesting about this record is the orchestra playing behind the singers as they try to sound like a Jas Band, but as you will hear they really didn't know. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/publicdomain/ 1916-00-00 00:00:00 78rpm unemployedprogr@yahoo.com 2004-06-07 12:44:34 leecherzs 0 3:38 Digital recording from blue amberol made at Menlo Park.
