The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I was trying to find out about EARL OLIVERS JAZZ BABIES, but there doesn't seem to be much information on the internet. Wikipedia and RED HOT JAZZ are my favorite search pages for all things jazz, but I found nothing. There is a hand full of You Tube Video's but I wish there was more. I hate to bid on an Edison record without hearing the songs first. So my question is: Do you have a link to a web page about the band? How many Edison diamond disk records did the band produce?

Actually, there is plenty of information on the Red Hot Jazz Archive. Earl Oliver's Jazz Babies was just one of the numerous pseudonyms for Harry Reser's Orchestra: http://www.redhotjazz.com/hreserbands.html
