Chris Barber Jazz & Blues Band- Royal Garden Blues - Featuring Sticky Wicket..! 

Ah no. This was many years later than Bix, and the bands occupation was to play fulltime theatre concerts. They did 250 a years during those days. People didn't come for dancing anymore to the Chris Barber band. They had done so in the 1950's but in this state of the career it was listening only. They needed some real spectacular material for that.

The song was written in 1919 - so an ‘authentic’ version might perhaps be ragtime piano. Anything after that would surely be a ‘modern’ interpretation, including Beiderbecke? I do struggle a bit with the concept of ‘traditional jazz’ - it implies a dedication a particular style, but jazz has ‘traditionally’ been a way of reinterpreting songs in a new way. “Trad jazz” almost seems like an oxymoron, leading to the idea ‘it shouldn’t go like that, it should go like this!’. 🤔
