Albert C. Ammons learned to play by the age of ten. He also played percussion in the drum and bugle corps as a teenager and was soon performing with bands on the Chicago club scene. After World War I he became interested in the blues, learning by listening to Chicago pianists Hersal Thomas and the brothers Alonzo and Jimmy Yancey.
William "Count" Basie was born to Harvey Lee and Lillian Basie in Red Bank, New Jersey. His father worked as a coachman and caretaker for a wealthy judge. After automobiles replaced horses, his father became a groundskeeper and handyman for several wealthy families in the area.
The Billy Penrose Quartet recorded jazz in the 1940s in England for Parlophone Records.
William "Willie" Lee Perryman usually known professionally as Piano Red and later in life as Dr. Feelgood, was an jazz artist, the first to hit the pop music charts.Some music historians credit Perryman's 1950 recording "Rocking With Red" for the popularization of the term "rock and roll" in Atlanta. His simple, hard-pounding left hand and his percussive right hand, coupled with his cheerful shout, brought him considerable success over three decades.
