Several sources (123) say this was originally called "Blue Balls" but that name was too indecent for radio, so it was renamed. It's a nice story. Are the refs good enough to put this on the main page? The Youtube video refers to Ken Burns, but I haven't seen it myself. dfrankow (talk) 19:56, 9 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Seems like there are some good book sources that repeat that story. I'd pick one or two of those books that have good details - better than trying to source it to a YouTube, some other editor will come in and start yelling RS! RS! at you. --Krelnik (talk) 02:46, 10 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As the cover of the single shown in the article demonstrates, the o' should be lower-case, and One O'Clock Jump thus redirect to One o'Clock Jump, not vice versa as it does now. An admin needs to do this because the redirect page can't be moved by non-admins without leaving a redirect to the moved page behind, which causes the main article to be unmovable to the name of the redirect page.

Just cleaned up the issue of authoriship. @ ASCAP, Basie is listed as sole author. In the lead section, at the same reference which was already cited, I found the information that helped me rewrite the section, and remove Eddie Durham and Buster Smith fr/ the info box. The info now matches the ASCAP database and is in synch with the reference cited. Tapered (talk) 02:46, 4 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
