[78-L] Rhythmic "sprituals" of the early 1930s

[martha]

 Without the lyrics,  Alexander's Ragtime Band and Monkey Doodle Doo fit the 
mood - they both want you to come along, be taken by the hand, to a promised 
land or ragtime band or land of dance, blah blah .     Great Day is the most 
obvious, but I don't think Jericho fits at all.
