[Dixielandjazz] "New Orleans Bump" (was JALC New OrleansChristmas)

[David Richoux]

Mike & Bill - Thanks!

So I did a further Google and Dogpile search on "Monrovia (A New  
Orleans Bump)" and variations - found a few references to it in Jazz:  
New Perspectives on the History of Jazz and other books, but it seems  
like nobody except Wynton Marsalis has recorded a version. (Mr. Jelly  
Lord (Standard Time, Volume Six.)

Anybody know of any others?

This question will probably make me appear clueless: Which Monrovia  
is being referenced in the title? The African country, the California  
city, some part of New Orleans?  Mike, I see that the  
doctorjazz.co.uk website is "© Monrovia Sound Studio" but there does  
not seem to be an explanation of why that name was chosen.

BTW, I did find this: http://www.customflix.com/207424 a video called  
"The Story of Jazz: New Orleans Stomp" that has  two full length  
classic jazz music videos:
"New Orleans Bump" and  "Oh, Didn't He Ramble" but I have no idea  
what they are.
