"Georgia Bo-Bo" by Jo Trent and Fats Waller was copyrighted 4/23/26. "Dixie Bo Bo" by Mike Jackson was copyrighted 7/21/27. "Louisiana Bo Bo" by Ted Nixon was copyrighted 2/25/28.
Joseph H. Trent (1892-1954) reportedly grew up in Illinois and Ohio, so his "Georgia Bo-Bo" may have had little to do with the South. Other titles by Trent: "In Harlem's Araby," "Bottomland," "The Zulu Blues," "I Got Worry," "Jig Walk," "Yam Brown," "Wringin' And Twistin'," "Deacon Jazz."
