Next time I hear someone complain about rap/hiphop only singing songs about bitches, violence, and booty-calls I'll ask them to listen to JRM. It's not like sex, violence, or drugs was invented in the 90s but it does seem strange to hear it in a ballad from the 40s.
No more than any other kind of music does. I don't understand taste that likes Jelly Roll Morton but doesn't like 2pac, Snoop-Dogg/Lion, Nelly, Biggie, etc. There is so much over-lap from one genre to another putting one down means putting ALL forms of music. There is not one proper way to make music.
Yeah, good luck getting someone who’s unintelligent enough to make such a statement understand your explanation. Also, that doesn’t negate the culture of violence surrounding new forms like drill rap, which is way more vast in scope than the expressive lyrics in a piece like this.
It’s just so real. And an accurate reflection of a cultural phenomenon wherein a black woman would blame, not the man who can’t control himself whereas the woman should have known better. Jelly Roll also influenced many other musicians including Bob Dylan!!
Love it, I heard this song was banned by the powers that be at the time it was made. But it is a cautionary tale of what not to do if your man is cheating. There are other fish in the sea. A sweet man is sooooo hard to give up but sometimes you have to in order to save yourself.

He was a legendary musician!
what a way to start this album, "bitch I'll cut your throat and drink your blood like wine." I love it! so dark, what a good story, or is it?
keep in mind Back in the day they did not have good sound But it still works !
Fantastic lyrics
YES !
Say what you want about The Roll, he was hugely influential.
Aquí está aquel viejo Jelly Roll con sus oraciones de 16 u 8 o 332 compases. Joya!!!
I believe this was recorded by Alan Lomax for the Library of Congress. He often had to cajole Jelly into using the real, raunchy lyrics.
music for soul
I added this to my tool box That way I have something to Listen to as can hear something To damn good to work with !
He is just as great as Edgar Allan Poe is.
Greater imo
Poe is primitive, Morton is sophisticated.
Said someone looking for someone to take the bait and start something. Unbelievable.
jelly og gangsta
Better than C-rap !!!!
LOVE DEM WORDS !
Muchas gracias por compartirlo.
“Jelly Roll Blues” by Elijah Wald, was released 4/1/24 on this song…enlightening

On UA-cam
amazing
cool
This recording would be vastly improved if that workman would quit hammering.
J C : Metronome = early drum machine. ;)
They used to have to put a pillow under his foot sometimes to dampen the tapping
Ha ha
@@aaron4wilkins yes, that is his foot tapping. He had a woodblock set up under his foot.
@@forrestwoods8599It’s Jelly Rolls foot tapping. You can tell it’s not a metronome because when Jelly increases the tempo the tapping also increases
whew!!
The first 3min= A Woman's Anthem
BEST IN SONG & BETTER THEN RAP !
Listen up Tangerine Dream. This is how you do a 30+ minute song.
Tangerine dream has 1 very well done an still good 4 sound tracts , EVEN For your own stuff !
shut up & listen to mr.Lamothe
TD put the sequencers on, and piss off up the pub 😅😅

1938 (?)
Not in the 20s ?
I think this was in the late 30s. But it is very mild compared with "Dirty Dozen" Jelly Roll Morton wrong in (IIRC) 1907.

I'm a Morton fan, but this got kind of monotonous.
It is a song that was sung in the Storeyville brothels. he is recounting it for the song. It is an early blues song, not jazz or ragtime.
actually it's hypnotic rather than monotonous...
Unlike todays music , it's just to bad we don't have this today ? what we have something called rap & it sucks !
