KANSAS CITY, Aug. 3. (^—Boot
leg music—wild jazz coupled with ris
que versification—is being distributed
in many parts of the country. In a
North side bonkey donk” cabaret hefe
an inquisitive visitor made the dis
covery that the bootlegging profes
sion numbers among its liquor, drugs,
and pornographic art, but a numerous
fraternity which bootlegs “off color”
talking machine records.
The hour for orchestra music had
passed. The negro jazz band had
gonue. But the patrons still craved
music. The proprietor waddled over
to an ornate gramophone and select
ed a record from a nearby cabinet—
which was. locked.
The “music” began with a moaning,
tom-tom beat. The cadence was regu
lar and sensuous. A woman’s voice—
an exceptionally good one—began to
croon; the instruments softened their
-ones, and the song burst against the
background of the drummer’s mono
tonous booming. At first the words
ind meaning wer^ mildly risque; the
second verse was a triflle more so, and
the third bordered on the obscene.
A reputable music firm would have
risked its standing by distributing
such a record. The inquisitive visitor
strolled over to the machine and in
spected the disk. There was nothing
:o identify it except the suggestive
:itle of the ditty. The proprietor wras
>Tague. He was not sure where the
'ecord had come from, had bought ,it
>n a certain street.
Several days later the visitor found
he seller “off color” records in a din
tv second-hand shop. The dealer refus
ed to show his wares until the custo
ner had been properly identified. But !
vhen this formality had been complet
ed, a door to a back room was throwm
)pen. Thousands of phonograph re
:ords were stacked around the walls.
V console machine quickly revealed
hat the cabaret proprietor’s records
vere typical of many others.
The proprietor explained that he
>ought the records from a manufac
turer who did a thriving business all
>ver the country. Many of them were
nade by negro singers. He himself
tad no complaint to make, as he re
vived 100 per cent profit on his in
restment. He said his customers
anged from mischievous high school
>oys to proprietors of exclusive es
ablishments on Kansas City’s “Gold
}oast.” The beauty of it all, he de
clared, was that the business was
trictly cash.’
