Comment:

Jump blues crossed the color line when it was still unfashionable — and even a little dangerous — to do so. With white practitioners such as Louis Prima and black artists like Louis Jordan, it directly presaged the birth of rock 'n' roll, when the racial barriers would finally be breached for all time.
