Emmett Miller was a minstrel performer who had the good fortune to have top-notch Jazz musicians assigned to his Okeh sessions in the late 1920s. His records made between June of 1928 and September of 1929 where labelled Emmett Miller accompanied by his Georgia Crackers and are of Jazz interest for the back-up musicians that accompany Miller on these sessions
Taking their name from a show written by Noble Sissle and Eubie Blake, a small group led by Don Redman recorded in the late '20s as the Chocolate Dandies. Redman also used the name for some McKinney's Cotton Pickers record dates but during the early '30s the name was picked up by other musicians, notably Benny Carter, who used it for a string of fine recordings he made with Coleman Hawkins and others.
