I am writing a short piece on jazz musicians who have had limb
amputations. So far, I have Wingy Manone (arm - street car accident),
Nat Adderley (leg - diabetes), Ella Fitzgerald (both legs - diabetes),
Cecil Scott (leg - trauma/gangrene), Ernie Cagnolatti (leg - anyone know
the cause?), and "Hooknose" Joe Loyocano (leg - anyone know the cause?).
I would be grateful for any additions to this list. Thanks.
Fred
