Here's a rare recording that was with this picture:

Would love to have seen these guys in action. :)

Except from the electric recording it sounds like a record from around 1910! Those fellows are so square that one can cut themselves on their edges.

Wow! What a rare territory record. If not for the electric process recording it sounds like it was made around 1910. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Put this record of "Shine On Harvest Moon" on a playlist along with http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdACXVsA5Ow&sns=em, and give it to one of those "White jazz/Black Jazz" theorists.

It's all just dance music, and mighty fine dance music at that.
