- The statement "It was written by Count Basie and Duke Ellington" is false.
The Great American Songbook is a collection of popular American standards and show tunes from roughly the 1910s–1950s, written by Tin Pan Alley, Broadway and Hollywood composers such as Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, Cole Porter, Richard Rodgers, Lorenz Hart, Jerome Kern, Harold Arlen, Johnny Mercer, etc.
- The footage of a marching band in early-1900s New Orleans would best be categorized as a brass/marching band tradition of New Orleans — early New Orleans jazz (street‑parade brass band, often called Dixieland or “second line” style).
