@John Smyth Often stock arrangers would transcribe an arrangement from a recording and that's most likely what happened here with Frank Skinner's 1926 arrangement which does come close to the Henderson recording. The Skinner stock arrangement which I am sure is used on this recording was published and available for any band in the world to play. I have a couple of copies which have turned up here in New Zealand - used by the Basil Bird's Band (one of the top bands in Wellington between 1928 and '34) and the other by Theo Walter's bands at various times in Auckland and Australia in the roughly the same era. Interestingly the Skinner stock arrangement contains transcriptions of both the Fletcher Henderson piano breaks and the entire Coleman Hawkins solo (although both are slightly different).
I also have other stocks which are similar -
Fletcher Henderson's - Variety Stomp (arr. Frank Skinner), Henderson Stomp (arr. Frank Skinner)
Duke Ellington's Birmingham Breakdown (arr. Ken Macomber), The Mooch (arr. Fred van Eps - trumpet playing son of Banjoist and brother of guitarist), Black and Tan Fantasy (arr. Eddie Powell), Creole Love Call (arr. Nat Leslie), East St Louis Toodle OO (claims to be an Ellington arrangement, but the harmonies are different in places - so probably a stock arranger's transcription - perhaps Ellington was paid to have his name on the stock, but given the attitudes of the times I doubt it),
Louis Armstrong's Basin Street Blues (arr. Ken Macomber)
Occasionally the actual arrangers would sell an arrangement (usually modified) to a publisher to release as a stock arrangement...
Swamp Blues (arr. Burke Bivens - member of the Art Landry Orchestra who introduced the tune), Stockholm Stomp and St. Louis Shuffle (arr. Jack Pettis and Al Goering), My Blue Heaven, Wang Wang Blues and At Sundown (arr. Ferde Grofe) are a few examples that come to mind.
Also (to add more confusion) bands would often alter stock arrangements for their recordings. Charts such as Fletcher Henderson's What-Cha-Call-'Em Blues, Tampeekoe, The Chant, Black Horse Stomp, Ain't She Sweet, Jack Ass Blues, Go Long Mule etc. were all stock arrangements altered and added to in most cases by Don Redman and various soloists. Many of the dance band recordings of the era frequently do this "doctoring" of stocks - Ben Selvin, Sam Lanin, Leo Reisman, Fred Rich, Savoy Orpheans etc.
@nicholastemple-smith2635
Courageous of Zonophone to issue such an uncommercial record. I wonder how well it sold.
@nickdellow6073
I'm not sure how many known copies there are of this record, but I haven't come across another collector who has a copy. Hopefully there are others.
@mlaprarie
I wonder if this is a stock arrangement? It's very similar to the one Rob Fisher and the Coffee Club Orch. recorded back in the 90's.
@nickdellow6073
Yes, a reworked stock
@johnsmyth3127
If you can call a Fletcher Henderson/Don Redman chart a "stock" ...
@nickdellow6073
@John Smyth If the Redman/Henderson charts were published for other bands to play they would have been considered as stock arrangements, but I know what you mean - they were pretty special ones!

@bobboscarato1313
These arrangements are carbon copies from Fletcher Henderson's works!
@manidig
Yes. The Henderson Record was nine months old by this time and well listened to around the world. Don Redman's arrangement became "the one." It is too bad the Bill Challis arrangement for the Goldkette band was not saved.
@nickdellow6073
@JohnI'm not sure that Challis wrote his own arrangement of "Stampede". In the discography section of "Bix: Man And Legend" it states that that Don Redman is the arranger of the unissued side. That may be an assumption by Bill Dean-Myatt, but it seems likely that the Goldkette band would use the Redman chart, maybe slightly doctored. I think I'm right in saying that all the Challis 'specials' are known about and accounted for.
