Birthdays

1914- Erskine Hawkins, Composer

Superb footage of the Erskine Hawkins band with an unknown title. Can anyone identify it? "Yvesfrancois" points out that the title of this number is "Swinging In Harlem". To my great delight Paul Bascomb jr. informed me that it is his father on sax and his uncle Dud "Wilbur" Bascomb on trumpet.

(Read my blog post here: Read my blog post here: http://bit.ly/hMObAq) Dobie Gray's version of "Drift Away" is, justifiably, the most famous and, by far, the most brilliant reading of the Mentor Williams-penned (that would be Paul Williams' brother) 70s staple.
