About Muggsy Spanier and His Ragtime Band

Muggsy Spanier (Francis Joseph Julian Spanier, November 9, 1901 – February 12, 1967) was a prominent cornet player based in Chicago. He was renowned as the best trumpet and cornet player in Chicago until Bix Beiderbecke entered the scene. Muggsy led several traditional, "hot" jazz bands, most notably Muggsy Spanier and His Ragtime Band (which did not, in fact, play ragtime but, rather, "hot jazz" that would now be called Dixieland). This band set the style for all later attempts to play traditional jazz with a swing rhythm section.
