Well, in the still photo you see during this track, if I got it right (and I think I do) left to right is King Oliver (though I am less sure about this man's identity), Louis Armstrong, Johnny Dodds (the greatest clarinetist of the NOLA Jazz era), Kid Ory, and Lillian Armstrong (Satchmo's eventual wife, known prior to marriage as Lil Hardin). Notably absent from this photo is Baby Dodds, Johnny's brother and one of the finest drummers of the Jazz Age era; I would hazard the guess that his is the percussion you hear on this recording.

No worries brother, happy to be of service ;D

Johnny Dodds so underrated, what a sweet, unique quaver, power, pathos. Like Sid Bechet, he owned the instrument. Just as two notes and you knew the trumpet was Louis Armstrong, same with Bechet, Dodds. Bechet made a soprano sax as distinctive as the lyrical tone Paul Desmond coaxed from an alto sax with Dave Brubeck. Miles Davis said, "You can't do anything on a horn Louis Armstrong hasn't done." George Lewis oft evoked Dodds' spirit. Profound thanks for this.

Louis no tocó,ni lejos,la trompeta como Maurice André en cuanto a a emisión del sonido se refiere:sin romper los labios,desgarrar el sonido,etc.King Oliver a su vez tocó,sin esfuerzo,con mejor sonido(inimitable)expresando el mejor New Orleans style.Lamento "bajar del pedestal" A Louis, que tuvo lo suyo,pero quiso ser querido, como no lo fue en su niñez,lo cual lo llevó a exagerar sonido,estridencias,"piruetas" y otros

King oliver must be given credit for that development as dodds and armstrong both started under the wing of oliver. Not to nit-pick but the man is horrifically underestimated

Pencil Papa was recorded on February 7, 1929! Great performance. Greetings from OK-DREAMBAND. CD "Clarinet-Dreams" is available for download (amazon, emusic, iTunes, musicload). Enjoy the music.

Hi, Interesting, your comments on this'vibrato technique' applied to reed instruments... May I assure you that this is one of the styles used on jazz reed instruments, & admirably so! The reedman himself 'Johnny Dodds' was well respected for the passionate mastery of this art form. I believe the depth of soul & feeling owed itself, in part, to this vibrato effect thus created. May I reassure you that without Dodds sincere & intimate individualism in music the world would be less bearable

@GoldenWestSignArts Safe... Sidney Bechet did play the clarinet but the recordings that your'e probably listening to are actually soprano saxophone. But another classic player. Both players were taught by the Tio family of New orleans who used sulfege to create "wonderful hearing".

@cowgirl14zz Listen to Sidney Bechet. I'm not a clarinet player but it sounds like he plays with tons of vibrato.

@lsdvine Thanks I'm gunna look those up and that, maybe it will help, I hope!! ^.^

@lsdvine......... western classical clarinettists are actually living in a world void of the expression the slides and vibrato lend to us as players. Remember that an instrument has no mind, it doenst care how it is played as long as YOU like it do it!!!

Liam Fionescu

@cowgirl14zz Dont believe anyone who tells you that the clarinet should be played in a particular way. Western classical clarinet is tight and precise and is traditionally played smooth, do this by clenching the muscle between your front and your back ('gooch' muscle) as you blow and keep it clenched alongside using your diaghrapm. But to get to the point...search for "epirus klarina" and search for "petroloykas chalkias" and you will see that...

I know this is jazz... but I thought clarinet never used vibrato? I play clarinet my self and I get those quiver sounds like I'm playing vibrato, I wish I understood how to stop that.
