Dear Luis,
A great tune.
"Stomp Off, Let's Go" (Elmer Schoebel)has been recorded by the following
'classic' era bands:
350 The Cotton Pickers 19 Nov 1925
369 Bob Crosby & His Orch 23 Jan 1939
658 Fred Hamm & His Orch 30 April 1925
764 Richard Hitter's Blue Knights 11 Sept 1925
927 Sam Lanin & His Roseland Orch 7 Oct 1925
973 Vincent Lopez & His Hotel Pennsylvania Orch 19 Sept 1925
1130 New Orleans Owls 24 Sept 1925
1364 Savoy Orpheans (English) 23 Oct 1925
1529 Erskine Tate's Vendome Orch 28 May 1926
I have all except the Hamm and Lopez.
The Erskine Tate version (with Louis Armstrong) is one of the greatest records
ever made!
Both takes are available on CD.
I have not included versions by 'traditional' jazz bands from the 1950s onwards.
Kind regards,
Bill.
