Jazz band under the lead of Snooks Friedman, formed in 1926. Many of the recordings made by this band between 1928 and 1931 were released under a variety of pseudonyms, including Snooks and His Memphis Ramblers, Snooks and His Paramount Theatre Orchestra and Ben Friedman's Paramount Hotel Orchestra.
During their tenure at the Crazy Cat Club, in New York, the band was also known as Snooks and His Krazy Kat Kittens, though the band is not known to have recorded under this name. In addition to the recordings heard here, Snooks Friedman and his band provided music for the first talking cartoon.
