[Dixielandjazz] Instrumentation similar to the KOCJB

[Andrew Homzy]

Hello,

I've was re-listening to some Johnny Dodds yesterday and just realized the session listed below has the same front line as King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band - 2 trumpets, trombone and clarinet. Furthermore, the penultimate chorus features a trumpet duet - albeit never as sophisticated as the King and the Dip - and in the last chorus, on the break, George Mitchell and Natty Dominique quote the KOCJB duet break from Snake Rag: 3rd chorus - April 6, 1923 - Gennett recording.

So this was an obvious tribute to the KOCJB in both instrumentation and performance.

My question is -

What other bands of the 1920s also used the KOCJB 2 trumpets, trombone and clarinet frontline? 

Cheers,

Andrew
