    The five-piece Original Dixieland Jazz Band makes its first side for Victor in New York. Dixie Jazz Band One-Step (VIC 18255) sells 1.5 million copies and initiates an era of commercial jazz recordings . . . Victor's assets in 1917 reach $33.2 million.

    Nothing new under the sun.

    Rocking doubles of this badboy 78 - By the time you've played 1 bar, the record has revolved 7 times dammit.

    You need the 16rpm 8" promo cut. Think Q-Bert has the only two known examples.

    My favorite release from 1917 was the unstoppable juggernaut that is the popular will of the proletariat masses, released in the form of the Russian Revolution.

    That year is all about John Phillip Souza. He ran shit on the oompah circuit.
