COUSIN JOE WAS BORN IN 1907 IN LOUISIANA. HE BEGAN HIS ARTISTIC CAREER IN NEW ORLEANS AROUND 1930, BUT HE ONLY GOT THE OPPORTUNITY OF RECORDING IN 1946 IN NEW YORK WITH THE GREATEST JAZZMAN: SIDNEY BECHET. COUSIN JOE IS FEATURED HERE ON TWO TRACKS WITH DICKIE WELL'S BLUE SEVEN.

JOE LIGGINS WAS BORN IN 1915 IN THE SMALL TOWN OF GUTHRIE, OKLAHOMA. MANY YEARS OF ARRANGING FOR HIMSELF AND OTHER BANDS ENABLED JOE TO PRODUCE A "SOUND" OUT OF OF HIS SIX-PIECE BAND THAT WAS VERY DIFFICULT FOR EVER LARGER BANDS TO COPY. "HONEYCHIPPER" STILL STANDS ALONE AS A SUPERB EXAMPLE OF SKILLFUL BAND ARRANGING

ROOSEVELT SYKES WAS BORN ON 31ST JANUARY, 1905 IN ELMAR, ARKANSAS. HE RECORDED HIS FIRST SESSION IN 1929 IN THE OKEH STUDIOS IN NEW YORK. HE ALSO RECORDED UNDER THE NAME OF BOBBY BRAGG FOR PARAMOUNT AND HE RECORDED EXTENSIVELY WITH HIS "HONEYDRIPPERS". HE LATER RECORDED FOR VICTOR UNDER THE NAME OF "WILLIE KELLY". FROM 1936 - 1941 HE RECORDED 80 TITLES FOR DECCA AND LATER IN HIS CAREER HE FLITTED FROM LABEL TO LABEL. ROOSEVELT DIED IN 1986.
