Bix is jazzing the hell out of the time in the first, "straight" chorus. It isn't obvious until you listen to a truly "straight" version of "I Need Some Pettin'." E.g., Russ & Fio Rito's Oriole Orchestra, on Brunswick 2637.
Beautiful. I"m glad they gave him a nice long one. I'm struck by how advanced Bix's solo is compared to the tenor sax solo (I forgot the player's name).
Terrific resolution from an acoustic recording . The young Bix in sparkling form .

Lively & cheerful
Wonderful...this is when Bix got his nice long solos, with the Wolverines.
Bix's best solo with the Wolverines - his first real important solo actually.

Agreed!! It is perfectly and logically constructed and quite advanced for 1924. It's also one of my favorite solos *period.*
amazing solo from bix!
Nice!
Nice recording!
