  1. There may be an error here. I've read that Ardoin's last recordings (listed here as: "22 December 1934 New Orleans, LA") took place in New York City. Is this new information?

    1. We know that this listing is in error. Tony Russell and company have been notified. We have 1st hand accounts from artists who were there for this session giving interviews discussing the location.
