| | Joe "King" Oliver - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In the mid and late 1920s Oliver's band transformed into a hybrid of the old New Orleans style jazz band and the nationally popular larger dance band, and was christened "King Oliver and His Dixie Syncopators". | | | Oliver played cornet in the New Orleans brass bands and dance bands and also in the city's red-light district, Storyville. | | | Oliver was also noted as a composer, having written Armstrong's early hit, "Dippermouth Blues", as well as "Sweet Like This", "Canal Street Blues", and "Doctor Jazz", the latter virtually the theme song of Jelly Roll Morton, a frequent collaborator. |

| | Oliver recorded a pair of duets with pianist Jelly Roll Morton but otherwise was off records that year. | | | Although originally a trombonist, by 1905 Oliver was playing cornet regularly with various New Orleans bands. | | | New recordings resulted (including "Snag It," which has a famous eight-bar passage by Oliver) but when the cornetist moved to New York in 1927, his music was behind the times and he made some bad business decisions (including turning down a chance to play regularly at the Cotton Club). |

| | Jazz Artist Biography - King Oliver@ jazzreview.com |
| | Oliver, like many New Orleans musicians, left for Chicago after the closure of Storyville in 1918, forming his own band, King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band. | | | In 1923, the Creole Jazz Band became the first to record in the New Orleans style, establishing a standard never to be surpassed. | | | In 1922, Oliver further cemented his dominance of the Chicago music scene by sending for the young Louis Armstrong, already a powerful contender for concert crown. |

| | Oliver grew up blind in one eye because of an early childhood accident. | | | He was, perhaps, the first musician to extensively use the plunger to give his sound a human moan. | | | From 1907 to 1919 he played with many ensembles: the Melrose Brass Band, the Olympia Band, his own band (with Sidney Bechet), Eagle Onward and Magnolia, as well as Kid Ory's band (where he got the nickname "King"). |

| | Louis Armstrong: A Cultural Legacy |
| | Oliver was one of a handful of noted musicians in New Orleans--along with Jelly Roll Morton, Sidney Bechet and others--who were creating a distinctive and widely popular new band music out of blues and ragtime. | | | When he returned to Chicago in 1926, he was a headliner on records and radio, and in jazz clubs, wowing audiences with the utter fearlessness and freedom of his groundbreaking trumpet solos. | | | The early 1920s saw Armstrong's popularity explode as he left New Orleans for Chicago to play with "King" Oliver's Creole Jazz Band, and then moved on to New York, where he influenced the Fletcher Henderson Orchestra with improvisation and a new musical vocabulary. |

| | Oliver's band and its West Coast reincarnations, Lu Watters' Yerba Buena Jazz Band from the 1940s and the South Frisco Jazz Band from the 1950s to the present, feature(d) a unique two-trumpet front line along with the traditional trombone and clarinet. | | | Clarinetist Rudy Jackson, a onetime Oliver sideman, claimed the piece as his own and presented it to Duke Ellington, who, after applying his own touches, recorded it as “Creole Love Call.” Oliver filed suit, but because of the title change from the original, the copyright couldn't be traced and the suit failed. | | | Snag It* (Joe Oliver) Recorded by King Oliver’s Jazz Band on 11 March 1926 for Vocalion and by Oliver’s Dixie Syncopators on 17 September 1926 for Brunswick. |

| | In the span of black musical history, Oliver occupies an important place in the era between ragtime and solo improvisation, as exemplified by Oliver's famous protégé, Louis Armstrong. | | | Because recording technology was just in its infancy, the sound legacy of Oliver's performances is skimpy. | | | He moved to New Orleans in his youth, where he became a professional musician playing in dance bands and marching bands. |

| | From 1908-17, Oliver worked parades, gigs, and occasional tours with a number of brass bands including: the Olympia, the Onward, the Magnolia, the Eagle, The Original Superior Orchestra in 1910, and Allen's. | | | This was a novelty for a New Orleans group but it was very successful because of the warm friendship each man held for the other, and because of their musical talents. | | | In 1916 Oliver and trombonist Edward "Kid" Ory co-led "The Kid Ory and King Oliver Band" then considered one of the best in New Orleans. |

| | Strangely, and maybe tellingly, Oliver responded the next year by releasing a soundalike cover version of Armstrong's, although Joe didn't play on the record himself: the Louis-created trumpet parts were recreated (under Oliver's "direction") by another ex-Ellingtonian, Louis Metcalf. | | | Between 1923 and 1930, King Oliver recorded frequently under his own name, eventually hitting every major label of the time. | | | Under Oliver's exacting standards, his 1923-recorded Creole Jazz Band operates as a well-balanced, hard-swinging ensemble. |

| | Satchmo Plays King Oliver |
| | The reason for some of his choices are obvious-they are pieces which he recorded with Oliver and the Creole Jazz Band or they are tunes that Oliver wrote or they are numbers that both he and Oliver recorded separately. | | | This record is Louis' tribute to the man who helped shape his trumpet style back in New Orleans and whose invitation to join his band in Chicago put him in the spotlight which has shone on him ever since, Typically of Louis, this is neither an overly sentimental nor a lugubrious remembrance. | | | But Louis has gone farther than such directly connected tunes for you'll also find pieces that are not associated with either Oliver or Armstrong but were being played and sung in the New Orleans that Joe Oliver knew as a young man and in that slightly later New Orleans that Louis Armstrong knew. |

| | After playing around New Orleans with a number of jazz ensembles, Oliver led his own band north to Chicago where, around 1918, he became the first black to triumph in clubs and on recordings. | | | By 1922, the band had become a sensation with the quality of its musicians, especially that of the band's second cornet, Louis Armstrong, who had been summoned to Chicago by King Oliver. | | | Beginning on trombone, he switched to cornet and played with such ferocity that he "blasted the heavens and shook the blackberry leaves" at funeral parades that often passed through black neighborhoods there. |
