Dukes of Dixieland disbanded in the early 1970s. In April 1974, producer/manager John Shoup restarted the Dukes of Dixieland with Connie Jones as leader, leased Louis Prima's nightclub atop the Monteleone Hotel in the French Quarter and renamed it "Duke's Place". The Dukes of Dixieland have not been affiliated with the Assunto Family since 1974, especially since their departure from New Orleans Jazz in 2014. The original Dukes of Dixieland were featured on the first stereo record, released November 1957, on the Audio Fidelity label. Sidney Frey, founder and president of Audio Fidelity, had Westrex cut the disk for release before any of
Jazz band Jass Band. It is reported that the first known recording of "Jas", "That Funny Jas Band from Dixieland (1916)" was by Collins and Harlan for Thomas A. Edison, Inc. on Blue Amberol in December 1916. The first Jazz record, "The Original Dixieland One-Step" was issue 18255 by Victor Talking Machine Company in 1917. This is the first record with "Jass" on the label, attributed to the "Original Dixieland 'Jass' Band". After litigation and claims of copyright infringement, the title was changed to "Dixie 'Jass' Band One-Step". Vince Guaraldi and Ramsey Lewis were notable leaders of jazz trios in the 1960s,
