Ray Miller & His Black And White Melody Boys - Columbia A3519 (1921)
Sticking with Ray Miller again...this one looks to be his first record for the Columbia label.
Wondering if the Pollack listed as composer for Weep No More is Ben Pollack. He would have been only 18 years old when this was recorded and that may be young but just two years later in 1923, he did co-compose Tin Roof Blues. Anyone know?
EDIT: Thanks to Althazarr for sending me the information on Lew Pollack.

Richard M. Jones - Gennett 5174 (1923)
I recently found and sold an Andrews Sisters 78 (Decca 3598). I then used the proceeds to get the following record...even had enough left over for a Dr. Pepper.
From wikipedia…
Richard M. Jones, born Richard Marigny Jones, (13 June 1892 – 8 December 1945 ) was a jazz pianist, composer,
band leader, and record producer. Numerous songs bear his name as author,
including "Trouble in Mind".
Jones grew up in New Orleans ,
Louisiana . Jones suffered from a stiff leg
and walked with a limp; fellow musicians gave him the nickname "Richard My
Knee Jones" as a pun on his middle name. In his youth he played alto horn
in brass bands. His main instrument, however, became the piano. By 1908 he was
playing in Storyville, the red-light district of New
Orleans . A few years later, he often led a small band
which sometimes included Joe Oliver. Jones also worked in the bands of John
Robichaux, Armand J. Piron, and Papa Celestin.
In 1918 Jones moved to Chicago .
He worked as Chicago manager for
publisher Clarence Williams. Jones began recording in 1923, making gramophone
records as a piano soloist, accompanist to vocalists, and with his bands The
Jazz Wizards and The Chicago Cosmopolitans. He recorded for Gennett, OKeh,
Victor, and Paramount Records in the 1920s. He also worked for OKeh Records as Chicago
supervisor of the company's "Race" (African-American) Records for
most of the decade. In the 1930s he played a similar role for Decca.
Louisiana Five Jazz Orchestra / The Happy Six - Columbia A2949 (1919)
Starting to find Louisiana Fives all over town. (Here are some others that have been posted before.)
This appears to be their second to last recording session.
Charlie Panelli tb / Alcide Nuñez cl / Joe Cawley p / Karl Berger bj / Anton Lada d. (Rust's discography has clarinetist Doc Behrendson added for this recording but listed on cornet...typo?)
