Talk:Kid Ory

message: I changed the wording on two points: 1) Ory indeed said he moved from New Orleans to California "for [his] health" in some interviews, but given the details when he discussed that time in more details it seems likely he was using the slang meaning of the phrase (which folks who watch old gangster movies will probably be familiar with). Unless we can discuss details, I think it's better to leave it at the simple statement of when and where he moved. 2)Someone may have finally established an exact date on Ory's Nordskog Records recordings, but if so I havn't seen it yet. All the sides may have been made on a single day, or maybe not. Thus I'm inclinded to leave it at he recorded "about" '21 or '22. -- Infrogmation 01:42, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I have no dispute with essential facts in this article, but the chronological arrangement of the events noted is way out of whack. The tone, while not too bad, is still a tad subjective for a Wikipedia article and it does need more citations. 
The best and latest research on Nordskog places the Ory Sunshine session in the late summer or fall of 1922, and this is partly supported by known release dates for other Nordskog records. They are certainly not later than 1923; to produce his disc supply, Nordskog shipped his master records off to Arto in Canada. Arto had a fire in 1923 which spelled the end of Nordskog. The Ory Sunshine discs were originally released on Nordskog as by "Spikes' Seven Pods of Pepper" i.e. as though they were the work of the Spikes Bros. However, the Sunshine labels were pasted over copies of the Nordskog discs.Pinikadia 21:01, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

message: How did he get this nickname? Because he was playing gigs at such a young age? 203.59.215.236 (talk) 21:58, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know.  The medium-depth source that I used to add material did not mention it.  The same for other medium-length sources that I reviewed.   North8000 (talk) 13:15, 26 April 2022 (UTC)

text: At the time, I believe the nickname "Kid" roughly meant "hot shot".  (Several other New Orleans instrumentalists were so nicknamed in the early 20th century, but Ory is a rare example of keeping the nickname life long.)  Need to find a published reference. -- Infrogmation (talk) 16:04, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
replies: text:  Some info here , though still need sourced definition of what it meant at the time/place. -- Infrogmation (talk) 16:08, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
