[Dixielandjazz] Bailey's Lucky Seven

That reminds me of the Raymond Scott Quintette with 6 members.

So I am not the only person in the world who cannot count!
How many members  Baiey's Lucky Seven had?  Whatever the name implies, the
correct answere is five.
But then, there were the Five Pennies, who sometimes - not too often - wre
really so few!
Which reminds me of an old joke:
A company is looking for a bookkeeper.  Many candidates come, each is asked
how many is two multiplied by two, and management rejects them  The
candidate which was eventually hired replied: "How much do you need it to
be, sir?"
Cheers
