Jelly Roll Morton Tiger Rag


Hold that tiger.

That was many years before the Dixieland had ever
started, when I played the “Tiger Rag.” Of course, we
named it “Tiger Rag,” but we had a lot of other numbers
around there that was supposed to be good. For an
instance, er, we’ll say “That’s-a Plenty.” “That’s-a
Plenty,” er, no, we won’t say that, we’ll say “Panama.”
That was a very good hot number. And we played it pretty
good around there.
