Overview

Livery Stable Blues is the story of misdirection, ego, and a biographer's quixotic attempts to capture the life of Nick LaRocca and the Original Dixieland Jazz Band. In the dark of a school auditorium, the projection of March of Time would change Harry Brass's life forever; what happened next sent him on a 23-year journey, intertwining his fate with bandleader, Nick LaRocca, and led to the publication of the Story of the Original Dixieland Jazz Band and its aftermath.
