Dipper
mouth blues (later known also as Sugar Foot Stomp) was recorded in a studio so close to the train tracks King Oliver had to keep the schedule handy all the time to avoid that the train passages ruined the session.
His well-known cornet solo, brilliant in using wisely only a few notes, begins at 1:19 to the break -on the voice screaming "Oh play
that thing!"- at 2:01.
If you haven't ever done it before, you can try and trace the Blues structure AAB in the twelve bars, repeated 9 time in the song.
Because the repeated structure in the songs we love and we dance on is like a navigator, it tells us where we are and where we are going (Marsalis ♥)

Divertente questa cosa del treno, non la sapevo. Sono invece riuscito a ritrovare un blog dove vengono analizzati, in maniera sommaria ma chiara, tutti i chorus della canzone.
