clifford_thornton Posted June 28, 2005 Report Posted June 28, 2005 Hi y'all, I picked up Sonny Stitt's Atlantic LP "Deuces Wild" for a few bucks today (with Robin Kenyatta and Rufus Harley), and there is a B-3er on it named Wilmer Mosby. I'd heard a rumor that it was a pseudonym for Groove Holmes, but haven't seen confirmation of this. I'm no B-3 expert by any means, and the organist - whoever the hell he is - isn't bad at all. Granted, the horn section was the focal point here, but I am still curious about Wilmer. Thanks! Clifford Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted June 28, 2005 Report Posted June 28, 2005 The organist is Don Patterson, I believe. Quote

JSngry Posted June 28, 2005 Report Posted June 28, 2005 Hi y'all, I picked up Sonny Stitt's Atlantic LP "Deuces Wild" for a few bucks today From Dusty Groove? The one that I ordered but got beaten to? You little... Dueces Wild my ass - it's BASTARDS Wild! Quote
clifford_thornton Posted June 28, 2005 Author Report Posted June 28, 2005 So where did the name "Wilmer Mosby" come from, then? Yeah Jim, I did have Dusty throw it in with some other stuff. I suppose it was more the 60s Kenyatta-completist in me than anything, though I do like Stitt. Quote
JSngry Posted June 28, 2005 Report Posted June 28, 2005 Well, congratulations then, and enjoy it. I've heard it a few times, and it's good stuff. Quote
StormP Posted June 28, 2005 Report Posted June 28, 2005 Just bought Nat King Cole 10 CD box, cost $18.00. 10 CD's with 24 tracks on each. I think it's a rip off the Mosaic set. I can't find the Mosaic track listing anywhere. I would like to cross-reference. Anybody kind enough to post them (I know it's a few pages or more) Thank you. The box is the German "Documents". Quote
king ubu Posted June 28, 2005 Report Posted June 28, 2005 Hey, wait a minute, I always thought it was Joe Maini's organ... now if it's Stitt's... that is so confusing, I tell you! Quote
mikeweil Posted June 28, 2005 Report Posted June 28, 2005 Hold it, king - only things hanging out on that session were from Rufus Harley's bagpipes ...... Quote

The one that I ordered but got beaten to? You little... Dueces Wild my ass - it's BASTARDS Wild! ← I went with my wife today to an antiques fair in West Palm Beach and spotted a very clean copy of this LP on a table that had a couple of stacks of LPs. The only non-musical drawback was the fact that on the upper left corner of the jacket there was a punch hole, a clean one but nevertheless, a hole. Dealer wanted $15 so I passed since the most I was willing to pay was $5. Don't listen much to LPs anymore so I really don't want to pay much whenever I see somethng of interest.
