The Original Dixieland Jass Band recorded this tune in 1917 making it one, if not the, very first jazz tunes to be recorded. It was composed by the bands trumpet player Nic la Rocca but the third section is a ragtime tune called That Teasin' Rag by Joe Jordan. The inspiration for Lasse's guitar arrangement comes from listening to it on a record by the 6 7/8 Stringband of New Orleans, a band that played jazz in New Orleans on mandolin, guitar, dobro and bass. It's in three sections all of them in different keys. D, G and C.
