Bob and DJML--
     Upon sober (increasingly rare) and mature (increasingly evident) 
reflection, i think you're right.  He has a recording from 1950 with 
his band (Conrad Janis and His Tailgate Jazz Band) listed on 
Amazon.com, and his tailgate-style is well listed 
(spheroids-to-the-wall style).
