Read Jelly Roll Morton's biography..Benny Goodman and others had huge hits with
KING PORTER STOMP and Morton couldn't collect a cent. Even a couple of decades
after his death, when ASCAP finally coughed up, the settlement was paid to the
widower of a woman who claimed Morton's estate as her own, even though there
was a legal wife elsewhere.
