“Shake That Thing” – The Jim Dandies

“Shake that Thing” – the only recorded output of the Lem Fowler quartet The Jim-Dandies – was released on the Harmony label in late 1925.

This exuberant jam, driven on by a rather insistent drum beat, starts as Irick and Glascoe each take solos – then begin to read one another’s minds as they complete one another’s phrases without skipping a beat.

Great fun to listen to.

Released as Harmony 55-H.
Recorded in New York on October 24, 1925.
