	"I began recording for Columbia and Victor about this time/' said Jelly Roll, "but Jack Capp, now president of Decca, came to me and said that the Vocalion Company was about to go out of business and I must help him, so I went in and saved the business. "From the time I started with Victor, using different per­sonnels in the Red Hot Peppers Band, I was for years their number one hot orchestra, and that's the way they billed me." [Particularly to be recommended are Black Bottom Stomp, The Chant, Grandpas Spells, Doctor Jazz, Cannonhall Blues, Shreveport Stomp, Turtle Twist, and Deep Creek]
