In the late 1930's, this musician recorded a number of solo pieces, including "The Crave" and "Don't You Leave Me Here," for General Records, which was released on an album titled for "Memories" of his home city. During a recording session, this bandleader once brandished a pistol against the trombonist Zue Robertson, because he refused to play the melody correctly. This man often played in a duet with King Oliver, who played the cornet when performing this man's standard "Froggie Moore." The banjoist John St. Cyr was a part of this man's group Red Hot Peppers, which would often perform the "Black Bottom Stomp," a standard he composed. In an interview, this man claimed that his predecessor Buddy Bolden played ragtime, while he himself invented jazz. For 10 points, name this early New Orleans pianist who composed the "King Porter Stomp," and who took his name from a slang term referring to female genitalia.
