 And is Criminalized

 1920’s and early 30’s  Jazz travels on the riverboats up the Mississippi into major centres in the northern part of the country  -the shipping industry also brings jazz New York City

 Prohibition

 Alcohol was made illegal, but it didn’t make it disappear.  Alcohol is a party favourite for the youth

 So if there was still a demand for alcohol, who would supply it?  Organized Crime  This is how Mobsters, like Al Capone became so powerful

 If you wanted a drink, where would you get one?  “Speakeasies” illegal clubs. Being caught in one was against the law

 Where do musicians find work?  Music is another party favourite for the youth.  Youth are always trying new music first and the new arrival of jazz to the Northern USA and Canada make it the popular music among the youth  Musicians are hired to play at “speakeasies” so young people could drink and dance the night away. They were working for criminals.  -jazz becomes associated with crime much like “gangsta rap”of today.  Jelly Roll Morton for example…

 -jazz also creates new forms of dancing involving hip swinging, touching and sweating and is viewed as “indecent”

 White musicians begin to find inspiration in this new black music  Bix Beiderbeck,  George Gershwin

 Recorded the first jazz record ever  “The Darktown Strutters Ball”

 Black musicians struggle to get record deals  Fletcher Henderson was a New York Rival to Whiteman and had a far superior band
