Wild Bill Davis
Bill (*1918) got his first piano lessons from his father. Very early,
the music of Fats Waller and Art Tatum influenced the young Bill, and
after musical studies at Tuskegee Institute and Wiley College, Bill
moved to Chicagio, where he worked as a pianist for Louis Jordan from
1945 to 1949.
It was in 1950 that Bill discovered the Hammond organ as his instrument. 1951, he formed his own organ trio (organ/guitar/drums). In the 60's, Davis toured together with Johnny Hodges and made several recordings with him. Between 1969 and 1971, Bill played in the band of Duke Ellington. In the following years, Wild Bill played mainly as a soloist. Recordings in Europe led him together with Buddy Tate, Slam Stewart and Illinois Jacquet. Later, he worked with Lionel Hampton (1978-1980). In the 80's and early 90's, Bill appeared at several festivals. He died on 17 August 1995. |
