CHATTANOOGA STOMP - Free Jazz Leadsheet

“chattanooga stomp” was recorded in 1923 by King Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band in Richmond, Indiana, during one of the group’s influential early sessions. The lineup featured Louis Armstrong alongside Oliver, creating one of the landmark ensembles of early jazz recording.

The tune is built on a lively, riff-driven structure typical of early New Orleans–style ensemble work. Its energetic breaks and collective improvisation have made it a durable favorite among traditional-jazz groups who value its rhythmic punch and concise melodic ideas.
