The source by Paige VanVorst (currently the second in the References section) begins with, "I wrote an article aout the Original Salty Dogs for the Mississippi Rag in 1975 and it seemed amazing that a jazz band would stay together 28 years...". If anyone has access to that 1975 Mississippi Rag article, it would be interesting to see if it has any more info that could be added to this Wikipedia article.
