By the time these tracks were made - in 1928 - New Orleans trumpeter King Oliver's reputation was such, that he commanded a $1000 advance when Victor signed him. Victor knew what they were getting. Even though Oliver's fame had been partially eclipsed by his protege Louis Armstrong, he could inspire fellow musicians to dazzling heights of virtuosity.Here are those Victor sides. He's playing on some and directing others. In either case, this is classic, early jazz of the highest order.
