Livery Stable Blues

Trumpeter Ray Lopez had worked with most of the ODJB musicians in New Orleans, especially in the bands of Papa Jack Laine.

The members of the ODJB published the piece copyrighted as their own composition under the alternative title "Barnyard Blues".

[13] Meanwhile, a second lawsuit arose from one of the strains of "Dixieland Jass Band One-Step" being almost identical to the 1909 Joe Jordan number "That Teasin' Rag".

The Original Dixieland Jass Band published the sheet music for the composition under the alternate title of "Barnyard Blues" with Leo Feist in New York listing Nick LaRocca as the composer.

"[16] Alcide Nunez and Ray Lopez published sheet music with Roger A. Graham (1885–1938) in Chicago listing themselves as the composers.

In a second issue of the sheet music, Marvin Lee added lyrics to the Nunez and Lopez version.

[17] Paul Whiteman opened his landmark concert An Experiment in Modern Music in Aeolian Hall, New York City, on February 12, 1924, with the tune, to demonstrate the sound of early jazz bands.

[8] Jelly Roll Morton, the Emerson Military Band, the New Orleans Rhythm Kings, Fletcher Henderson, Benny Goodman, Glen Gray and the Casa Loma Orchestra, Bunny Berigan, Muggsy Spanier, Pete Daily and his Chicagoans, Phil Napoleon, The Belgrade Dixieland Orchestra, and Vince Giordano, on both the 2011 Grammy Award-winning soundtrack album to the HBO Boardwalk Empire series and the 2023 soundtrack to Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon, have also recorded the song.
