Hi Bill,

I'm new to the list and will help when I can. I'll start here.

According to my fake book (GOTTA have one of those), here's the poop.

Farewell to Storyville (aka The good Time Flat Blues)

Written by: Clarence & Spencer Williams - 1925

Noted recordings of this song by:

Maggie Jones with Louis Armstrong-cnt and Fletcher Henderson-pno  1924
Kid Ory's Creole Jazz Band  1946
The New Hot Frogs (Pat Yankee voc)  1992
The Silver Leaf Jazz Band 1993
Several more recent covers after...

The Storyville Blues

Turk and FH5+2

Other recordings of note:

I have several other covers of this song in my library as well. I LOVE to
play this song and at times is my favorite depending on my mood.  OKOM for
sure.....

Hope this helps.

Best Regards,

Greg "Tuba" Kalkhoff  (good buddy of John Knurr... my mentor, in Milwaukee)
