Scores Wanted: Original Jelly Roll Morton
By Terry Truman

Greetings to all,

I've been asked by a friend (not on net) to seek out sheet music or
midi files from ORIGINAL PERFORMANCES of Jelly Roll Morton and James
Price Johnson, with particular emphasis on these musicians original
ornamentation of the tunes.

I figure this group would know more about these composers as they were
mostly active in the era of mechanical music. (the era obviously
persists)

Any guidance or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Terry Truman. (Adelaide, South Australia)
