<b>Jelly Roll Blues 1</b>

This version of Jelly Roll Blues is based on a piano roll made by Ferdinand "Jelly
Roll' Morton, who claimed to have invented Jazz on a hot summer afternoon in 1902.
The first great composer of Jazz, Morton was a virtuoso pianist, band leader,
gambler, and all around hustler who honed his skills in the sporting houses of New
Orleans' legendary Storyville district. A good link to learn more about the life
and music of Morton is <u><b><a href="http://www.jazzitude.com/morton4.htm"><font
