Hello all
If we include blues, there are a few more:
I've got Ford (engine) movements in my hips, Cleo Gibson, March 1929
Cadillac baby, Will Batts, August 1933
Terraplane blues, Robert Johnson, November 1936
With jazz, we can probably include Jelly Roll Morton's Sidewalk blues
(September 1926), because of the instrumentation.
On the matter of Sidewalk blues, does anyone want to get involved in the
argument about the "2 cornets" ? :-)
All the best
Anton
