Supposedly, it was something like this (minus the fan) that created scat singing. The lyrics to “Heebie Jeebies” fell off the music stand just as Satchmo was supposed to start singing. In those days, you literally cut a record live; there were no second takes, as there was no tape, just lacquer discs. So he just started singing whatever came to mind. And a legend was born.
