Teddy Buckner (July 16, 1909 in Sherman, Texas – September 22, 1994 in Los Angeles, California) was an American jazz trumpeter associated with Dixieland music. Early in his career Buckner played with Sonny Clay. He worked with Buck Clayton in Shanghai in 1934, and later worked with Benny Carter among others.
Aboard the wagons, to avoid hitting any of the other musicians with his slide, Ory stationed himself near the tailgate. His simple, staccato playing, coming from that position, may be the reason that style of trombone is often called ‘tailgate.’

Kid Ory was born on Dec. 25, 1886, in La Place, Louisiana. He was very interested in music from an early age, performing with a singing group as a youth, and then a band in which the youngsters played homemade instruments. He started on the banjo when he was ten, soon switching to valve trombone and eventually permanently to slide trombone. During ...
In 1919, Ory decided that he had accomplished all that he could on the New Orleans scene and he moved to California. When he found that there was an interest in New Orleans jazz, he sent home for players (including cornetist Mutt Carey) and was based in Los Angeles for the next six years. Ory’s combo also spent periods working in San Francisco and ...
While Kid Ory enjoyed being in California, playing at Hollywood parties and on the radio, by 1925 he realized that Chicago was the place to be for jazz musicians. Actually, if he had moved to Chicago in 1923, he probably would have been in King Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band. When he made the decision to move, he gave his band to Carey and headed east. ...
Even though he did not lead any record dates of his own in Chicago, it would be difficult to imagine the Chicago jazz scene of the 1925-28 period without Ory. As a member of Louis Armstrong’s Hot Five during 1925-27, his rhythmic style and gruff sound served as a perfect contrast to Armstrong. On such pieces as “Gut Bucket Blues,” “Come Back Sweet ...
But then it stopped for a time. After King Oliver headed to New York, Ory worked nightly with Dave Peyton, Clarence Black, and, in 1929, with Boyd Atkins’ Chicago Vagabonds. Rather than follow the trend and move to New York, Ory decided to return to Los Angeles. He would have a low profile for the next dozen years. He worked with local bands before...
In 1942 with the rise of interest in New Orleans jazz, Kid Ory returned to music. He worked with clarinetist Barney Bigard’s group and led his own quartet in Los Angeles, sometimes doubling on bass. A surviving radio broadcast from 1943 finds him playing with Bunk Johnson. It is the first documentation of Ory’s playing since 1928 and shows that the...
Kid Ory appeared in the Louis Armstrong film New Orleans in 1946 and cut a session as a sideman with Armstrong that included the original version of “Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans.” Ory’s own group evolved through the years. Trumpeter Andrew Blakeney succeeded Carey in 1947 and gave the band a solid lead with Joe Darensbourg soundin...
While Kid Ory broke up his band at the end of 1961 and considered himself retired, he still played now and then. In 1964 he appeared on a Walt Disney television special, performing on the riverboat Mark Twain with Louis Armstrong and Johnny St. Cyr (from the Hot Five) and sounding fine. He moved to Diamondhead, Hawaii, in 1966. In 1971, Ory returne...
