    Among the first songs I heard playing on the street in 1969 on my first trip to New Orleans.
    TS gives it a bunch more depth though.
    Thanks again James

    Awesome like fine wine better as they age a little. Does anyone have any idea when T.S will be in N.O. in the fall? planning a trip from Texas. Left N.O in 1963 miss the music so much.

      It was a popular pop standard until Spike Jones took it apart in the early 1940's. This version is nice enough to resurrect it and more. Very good music. Thanks so much to Tuba Skinny.

      No, read the caption in the first seven seconds of the video and read the description below the video. I always give the date of the recording. It is not the same date that the video is posted (usually.)

    Many thanks, James. 'Chloe' is a 1927 song by Charles Daniels and Gus Kahn. It's an appealing 32-bar song and yet it is eerie. Though it is theoretically in the key of C, it uses a lot of C minor, D minor and G minor chords, so it feels like a minor-key tune. The words are odd too - about somebody hunting for Chloe in a swamp. Searching for a girl at night, through swamp lands, and going through smoke and flames? How on earth did this situation arise? Weird, isn't it? For example 'If it's wrong or right, I got to go where you are. I'll roam through the dismal swamp land searching for you, 'Cause if you are lost there, let me be there too. Through the smoke and flames, I got to go where you are...'. For my blog discussion of this song (and the sheet music), see: playing-traditional-jazz.blogspot.com/2017/02/post-477-chloe-song-of-swamp.html

      @@JamesSterling I wonder how much effect my Apr 6th email had. I have some contacts among truckers and I suggested to her that if Royal St wasnt made available to the groups I would speak to my contacts and since NO wasnt all that far off of I10 and there was a fgood chance we see if we could get a convoy to shut down more than a few New Orleans streets.
