Washboard blues Teagarden Jack Orchestra 1939
In a 1939 short film we see the Orchestra of Jack Teagarden playing two compositions of Hoagy Carmichael. And amazingly Hoagy is there as well. He sings Washboard blues, then after some squabbling between Jack and Hoagy Jack plays the famous Rockin' Chair. The only other musician in the reed section I recognize is the darkhaired Ernie Caceres on clarinet.
