Early jazz cornetist Muggsy Spanier was a forceful player who rarely strayed far from the melody. Perfectly at home in Dixieland ensembles, he was also an emotional soloist and an expert at using the plunger mute. He was a fixture in Chicago throughout the 1920s before playing with the popular Ted Lewis orchestra from 1929 until 1936. Spanier eventually formed his famous eight-piece "Ragtime Band" and recorded 16 Dixieland performances for Bluebird. Later dubbed The Great Sixteen, these recordings virtually defined the music of the Dixieland revival movement. Muggsy joined Bob Crosby for a time, had his own short-lived big band, freelanced with Dixieland bands in New York, and, starting in 1950, he gradually relocated to the West Coast. Spanier continued playing until his retirement in 1964.
