For HELP with listening to the music,

   
Coney Island Washboard
This tune was a favorite of the novelty Jazz Bands of the early part of the 20th century. Washboardist "extraordinaire" Don Sheske is featured on this cut.

Sleepy Time Down South
This was Louis Armstrong's Theme song. He played it at each of his performances. John Braun's Clarinet is "Oh So Sweet" on this version!

Louisiana
Probably the most famous version of this tune was recorded by Bix Biederbeck in 1928. The whole band shines in this arrangement.
