I had forgotten what this even sounded like until I played the file just

four years...now I need to grab the box it's in (a job in itself) and
re-transfer it with proper noise reduction software now that I am better
equipped...

Recorded in Richmond on Feb. 18, 1923.
Pretty sure Art Payne is not a pseudonym. He was the band's director.
Love that cymbal player!
