THE VERSATILE THREE / FOUR
The 1916–1920 recordings by this group are not jazz in any sense, although some are of mild interest as examples of ragtime-inflected treatments of the popular tunes of the day. The following are later recordings by members of the group and are of unknown jazz interest.

VICTOR VORZANGER AND HIS BROADWAY BAND
Among the number of sides recorded by this unit for Aco and Scala, the following are of unusual interest, in that they must rank as the first records to be issued by a racially mixed jazz band. (The cornet, trombone, and drums are played by black American musicians, the others being white Europeans). There may be other titles of equal merit as jazz, albeit somewhat crude.
