[Dixielandjazz] Bailey's Lucky Seven

[Stephen G Barbone]

Who were Bailey's Lucky Seven? Napoleon, Nichols, Mole, et al as Bill  
Haesler knows. Were they the Memphis Five selling out to Sam Lanin to  
make money?

For some interesting history about Bailey's Lucky Seven visit the  
StarrGennett webpage at:

Hear them at:

BTW, I don't think Ukulele Ike is on vocal as the header states since  
there is no vocal. Maybe that's him on the slidewhistle solo, or maybe  
that's Miff Mole.

While there surf the site. Some other interesting information is there.

Cheers,
