In 1935 the renowned "Onyx Club", a jazz club located on West 52nd Street in New York City, began to feature a swing- and Dixieland-oriented small combo led by two veteran dance-band musicians, Eddie Farley (trumpet) and Mike Riley (trombone).
The band never took itself quite seriously and resorted to novelty songs and a great deal of on-stage clowning. One of its routines had something to do with the mechanics of a brass instrument. The song was called “The Music Goes 'Round and Around,” and it became one of the biggest hits of the decade. - Published by
