List mate Sheik's fake book # 1 has the High Society Solo written out in
very legible form. His is the Johnny Dodds version transcribed from 1923 and
a King Oliver recording. Probably VERY close to the Picou original and an
excellent version in any event. Not only that but Sheik's fake books, the
entire series is Excellent.

Cheers,
