Original Dixieland Jazz Band, also known as Original Dixieland Jass Band, was a jazz ensemble formed in New Orleans, USA, in 1916. They are widely credited with making the first commercially released jazz recording in 1917, titled "Livery Stable Blues". The group, led by cornetist Nick LaRocca, played a pivotal role in popularizing jazz music during its early years. Their recordings, including "Tiger Rag", became significant milestones in the genre's history. While their style reflected the traditional New Orleans jazz sound, their influence extended globally, shaping the early development of jazz as a mainstream genre.
