The oldest known jazz song is “Livery Stable Blues,” which was recorded by the white group the Original Dixieland Jass Band in 1917. However, the first recorded use of the term “jazz” was in a 1913 record by the white group the Vitago Band. It’s important to note that jazz was originally an African American musical form that developed in New Orleans in the late 1800s, but it was first recorded by white artists.
