Fess Williams, klarinettprofessor med många trix, som var en av Johnny Dodds företrädare i King Olivers Creole Jazz Band presenteras med egen orkester från slutet på 1920-talet. Sångerskan Lee Wiley får smeka våra öron med en vacker sång. Men oj vad mycket mer som bjuds i dagens program: Jean Goldkette, Five Birmingham babies, Louis Armstrong, Red McKenzie, Boswell Sisters, Jimmy Blythe, Eddie Condon m.fl. Kort sagt ett rikt spektrum av tidig jazz!
