[Dixielandjazz] Saint Louis Blues ?

[domitype]

A lot of people call "Joe Avery's Piece" (or "Second Line," or by many other titles) the original Rock and Roll tune. It certainly can be heard in "Rock Around the Clock" and bits of other classic rocking songs. 

I think It is well over 100 years old, or close to it!
