Chicago in the 1920s: Jazz and Hot Dance Music was a 1977 LP released by the University of Michigan, featuring the Jazz Repertory Ensemble. Yes, The performers were college kids!
In 1982 or 1983, the university ran an ad in its alumni magazine hawking the record:
PROVENANCE OF THIS RECORDING: This LP was one of my mom's records, just like the LPs seen above, in the Record Round-Up header, I borrowed it and made a cassette dub. Later that cassette was dubbed to mp3.
Yes, in places you can hear record pops, and in places there's brief tape distortion. But this music is so peppy, so cheerful, that I listen to it anyway. I hope you too will give it a try.
