[Dixielandjazz] Sharkey Bonano and OKOM

[Roger Wade]

Hi Berry,

The song you are referring to, "I Ain't Gonna Give Nobody None o' This 
Jelly Roll", was performed by the great New Orleans blues singer Lizzie 
Miles, with Sharkey and his Kings of Dixieland, on the 10-inch Capitol 
LP "Midnight on Bourbon Street" (Capitol H367).

A fine album, although Lizzie sings only on this track.

Hope this helps.
