The H5JM give this old war-horse a face-lift with a latin beat. Kid Ory composed it in 1926, just before a Louis Armstrong Hot Five recording session and Lil Armstrong came up with the title.
This video clip comes from a "Hot Five Jazzmakers" concert June 23/95 during the Toronto Downtown Jazz Festival. Charlie Gall, (originally a joint founder of Glasgow's Clyde Valley Stompers), is on trumpet. Guesting on drums is Graham Scriven, on vacation from England and visiting his son Gary. The rest of the band - Brian Towers - trombone/leader; Janet Shaw - alto & clarinet; Rainer Hunck - banjo and Colin Bray - string bass.

Edward "Kid" Ory (December 25, 1886 -- January 23, 1973) was a jazz trombonist and bandleader. He was born in Woodland Plantation near LaPlace, Louisiana.
Ory started playing music with home-made instruments in his childhood, and by his teens was leading a well regarded band in South-East Louisiana. He kept La Place as his base of operations due to family obligations until his 21st birthday, when he moved his band to New Orleans, Louisiana.
He had one of the best-known bands in New Orleans in the 1910s, hiring many of the greats, including cornetists Joe "King" Oliver, Mutt Carey, and Louis Armstrong; and clarinetists Johnny Dodds and Jimmie Noone.
In 1919 he moved to Los Angeles, one of a number of New Orleans musicians to do so at about that time, and he recorded there in 1922 with a band including Mutt Carey, clarinetist (also a pianist) Dink Johnson, and string bassist Ed Garland. (Garland and Carey were longtime associates who were still with Ory during his 1940s comeback.) In 1925, Ory moved to Chicago, where he was very active, working and recording with Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, "King" Oliver, Johnny Dodds, and many others.
During the Great Depression Ory retired from music in 1933, and would not play again until 1943. From 1944 to about 1961 he led one of the top New Orleans style bands of the period. In addition to Mutt Carey and Ed Garland, trumpeters Alvin Alcorn and Teddy Buckner; clarinetists Darnell Howard, Jimmie Noone, Albert Nicholas, Barney Bigard, and George Probert; pianists Buster Wilson and Don Ewell; and drummer Minor Hall were among his sidemen during this period. All but Probert, Buckner, and Ewell were originally from New Orleans. The Ory band was an important force in reviving interest in New Orleans jazz, making popular radio broadcasts — among them a number of slots on Orson Welles' Almanac broadcast and a jazz history series sponsored by Standard Oil — and recordings.
Ory was also the composer of numbers including "Muskrat Ramble", "Ory's Creole Trombone", and "Savoy Blues". Ory retired from music in 1966 and spent his last years in Hawaii.

Struttin' was composed by Louis' second wife: Piano player Lilian Hardin (Armstrong)
Louis Armstrong and His Hot Five first recorded Struttin' With Some Barbecue in 1927
The Hot Five was Louis Armstrong's first jazz recording band led under his own name.
It was a typical New Orleans jazz band in instrumentation, consisting of trumpet, clarinet, and trombone backed by a rhythm section. The original new orleans jazz style leaned heavily on collective improvisation, where the three horns together played the lead: the trumpet played the main melody, and the clarinet and trombone played improvised accompaniments to the melody. This tradition was continued in the Hot Five, but because of Armstrong's creative gifts as a trumpet player, solo passages where the trumpet played alone began to appear more frequently. In these brilliant solos, Armstrong laid down the basic vocabulary of jazz improvising, and became its founding and most influential exponent.
The Hot Five was a recording group organized at the suggestion of Richard M. Jones for Okeh Records. All their records were made in Okeh's Chicago, Illinois recording studio. The exact same personnel recorded a session made under the pseudonym "Lil's Hotshots" for Vocalion/Brunswick. While the musicians in the Hot 5 played together in other contexts, as the Hot 5 they were a recording studio band that performed live only for two parties organized by Okeh Records.
There were two different groups called "Louis Armstrong and his Hot Five", the first recording from 1925 through 1927 and the second in 1928; Armstrong was the only musician in both groups.

Tight Like This -- New Black Eagles 1988
I have heard very few bands ever attempting to recreate this fabulous piece of music that has inspired so many of us, who try to play early jazz. This was from the very
last recording Louis Armstrong did in 1928 with his Hot Five. He then called it his Savoy Ballroom Five with Don Redman on reeds and Earl Hines on piano, a classic no lover of jazz should miss from his disc collection.
The Eagles do their own version of this wonderful piece with great dynamics. Take the trombone solo and hear how the dynamics are increased in the second half of his chorus and then the band falls back to just solo piano. During the brilliant cornet solo the band starts a controlled riff in the second half and in the final chorus the cornet rides even higher over a full riffing band . Great and emotional playing by this superb band from the Boston area. I'm so glad I met these musicians in the early seventies in New Orleans and our friendship has lasted through all those years. Probably my favourite band!
Tony Pingle cornet, Peter Bullis banjo, Stan Vincent trombone, Pam Pameijer drums, Bob Pilsbury piano, Eli Newburger tuba and Billy Novick reeds.
Recorded live at the San Diego Festival in the fall of 1988
Today almost 20 years later, they are still playing in almost the same combination.

The late Jeff Healey loved our Saturday matinees at "C'est what?" in downtown Toronto, during the 1990's. Anytime he was not on the road with his blues band, he would be with the Hot Five Jazzmakers. Usually he was a guest but sometimes he would sub on banjo or guitar and sometimes cornet. In fact Jeff had occupied the trumpet chair while Charlie was away for a few weeks. Jeff was a huge fan of Charlie's playing style and they shared the same idols. Here is a Louis Armstrong number Hot Five classic - "Kneedrops"
Here he is a rare clip of Jeff playing banjo!
This session took place May 18/96 and the rest of the line-up consists of Janet Shaw - reeds; Brian Towers - trombone/ldr; Colin Bray - bass; Gary Scriven - drums and Reide Kaiser - piano.
Our thanks to Bob Byler for filming on this day, in difficult circumstances, with a packed room and enthusiastic and lively audience.
You can see Jeff and the band in better detail by watching "Sunny side of The Street" at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXJiduuW944 (more)

Lil Hardin Armstrong (born Lillian Hardin) (February 3, 1898 -- August 27, 1971) was a jazz pianist, composer, arranger, singer, and bandleader, and the second wife of Louis Armstrong with whom she collaborated on many recordings in the 1920s.
Hardin's compositions include "Struttin' With Some Barbecue", "Don't Jive Me", "Two Deuces", "Knee Drops", "Doin' the Suzie-Q", ""Just For a Thrill" (which became a major hit when revived by Ray Charles in 1959), "Clip Joint", and "Bad Boy" (a hit by Ringo Starr in 1978).

Cakewalkin' Babies Armstrong/Bechet 1925!!!
In considering which jazz tune has been my favourite I came to the conclusion that a combination of two of the best musicians playing hot jazz together in one tune should be the one. The musical strong personalities of Louis Armstrong on the one side and of Sidney Bechet on the other resulted in them going their own ways and were maybe not being too eager to play or record together.
Bandleader/pianist/composer/music publisher Clarence Williams managed to arrange a few recordings with Louis and Sidney in their early years.
We are very lucky to have these recordings survive. Of course there are no movies of that, so no luck for youtube,....maybe?
Well, that kept me busy thinking for a while, so I searched the net for some pictures mostly from that period and I have combined this with the 1925 sound recording of Clarence Williams Blue Five of Cakewalking' Babies from Home. In the band are Clarence Williams on piano, the very popular singer Eva Taylor, who was or became Clarence's wife, trombonist Charlie Irvis, Buddy Christian on banjo, and my two heroes Louis Armstrong on cornet and Sidney Bechet on sop sax.
Many of you will not have heard this masterpiece before. To me the most exciting piece of jazz are the two outchorusses of this tune. Just sheer magic. I hope you all agree.

Summertime - Eli Newberger 1996
With our Climax Jazz Band, when we were visiting the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival in 1974 we met a band, the New Black Eagle Jazz Band from Boston, that just like our band had been formed in 1971. Our two bands together played a session in a cafe along Bourbon Street. A friendship developed that made both bands visit each other many times. We went to Boston, they came to Toronto or we met at jazz festivals worldwide. The tubaist of the Black Eagles was Eli and I have known him ever since. One of my highlights was organizing a hot five-type setting where we would jam a few Louis Armstrong Hot Five tunes. With a three piece frontline, our Jack Vincken on banjo and Eagles' Eli on piano. Eli was a master pianist in that setting, both in hard swinging accompaniment as well as in excitingly creative solos. Eli certainly realized his function as a rhythm man and his solos set him apart from most tuba players.
In this duo performance as well as in the other clips with M'N'M we see an Eli who is shown in a consummately creative situation.
I'm very happy to have received these videos from him and it is with great pleasure that I show these to all you jazz lovers around our globe. In this clip you see Eli together with banjo master Jimmy Mazzi who also sings the vocal in an unique manner.

Skid-Dat-De-Dat -- Vancouver Hot Five 1999
After I had moved away from Toronto and its Climax Jazz Band we settled in the Vancouver area for a number of years. I started the Vancouver Hot Five and this group became some sort of pet project. All with a love of early jazz we would come together and try to play some good but often obscure tunes. I have always been intrigued by Louis Armstrong's Hot Five 1926 version of Skid-Dat-De-Dat. The simple chord pattern system seemed not logical. I finally sat down, and figured that it was a 20 bar tune.
We took it in our rehearsal schedule and one night I recorded it with my mini disc recorder, I eventually filed in my iTunes computer system and yesterday I gave it a listen. Just for fun I emailed it to my good friend Paul Zelders, former tubaist of Holland's Circus Square Jazz Band, and a promotor of early jazz revival via the internet. http://www.circussquarejazzband.nl/index.php/?page_id=29
He wrote back, liked it and suggested for me certainly try to post in on youtube.
I thought about it and decided to back the music up just with pictures I took of the landscape of our Okanagan Lake near Kelowna, BC. where we live. Some quiet but intens music together with peaceful pictures.
Together with me on cornet we hear Clarinetist Lloyd Arntzen who is specialized in the style of Johnny Dodds, pianist Alen Matheson is actually a professional trumpetplayer but as a music teacher of jazz in Vancouver, he loved to be part of our group because he liked to approach the styles of the Armstrong Hot Five, Morton and Dodds tunes. Bill Dixon, originally from the UK and former banjoist with Kenny Ball together with music teacher and tubaist Steve Toren.

These great musicians do a sweet job with this tune entitled, "You Made Me Love You When I Saw You Cry".
The fellas learned it from a Louis Armstrong Hot Five recording from 1926.
They performed at the Elks Club in Port Angeles, WA. during the Jazz in the Olympics traditional Jazz and Dixieland music festival.
Drop in on the bands' website for information regarding their CD's and gig schedule.
Thanks to Dave Holo, the cornet player and band leader, for helping me with the song title on this one!

In 1927, Johnson recorded in Chicago as a guest artist with Louis Armstrong and his Hot Five, paired with banjoist Johnny St. Cyr. In 1928 he recorded with Duke Ellington, as well as with a group, The Chocolate Dandies. He pioneered the guitar solo on the 1927 track "6/88 Glide"[5] and many of his early recordings showed him playing 12-string guitar solos in a style that influenced such future jazz guitarists as Charlie Christian and Django Reinhardt, and gave the instrument new meaning as a jazz voice. He excelled in purely instrumental pieces, some of which he recorded with the white jazz guitarist Eddie Lang, whom he teamed up with in 1929. These recordings were among the first in history to feature black and white musicians performing together, but Lang was credited as Blind Willie Dunn to disguise the fact.
