[Dixielandjazz] Looks like a keeper...

[Fr M J (Mike) Logsdon]

Now that we're all agreed (even Mr Barbone; heavens!) as to the value of 
the Archeophone 1923 Oliver recordings, I've got a new question:

Generally, it is taken as a given that the Armstrong Hot 5s and 7s are 
the "Rosetta Stone" of jazz.  In what sense can it be said that the 1923 
Olivers are said "Stone"?  After all, they did come first, and seemingly 
define, or at least trigger, the genre...,
