100 years ago is when the Jazz age really begun! 1926 ignited the golden era of hot jazz during the Roaring Twenties, as the genre rapidly evolved from its collective New Orleans roots into a dynamic style emphasizing individual expression, technical virtuosity, and innovative arrangements. This pivotal year captured the spirit of cultural liberation, urban nightlife, and post-war optimism, propelling jazz toward greater sophistication and widespread influence as the defining sound of a transformative decade. Here is a Jazz song recorded in January of 1926. https://youtu.be/cbMQkRQUSJo?si=h_oc1nZW1YfPMR-e
