[Dixielandjazz] I Am Pecan Pete, by Turk Murphy

[Bob Romans]

FW: Pecan PeteHi Listmates...can any of you help Bruce?
 Cell Block 7 recorded this with Bill Hannaford playing the trombone solo, and he did a GREAT job on it...Ed Zimbrick gave me the chart originally. Pat Yankee heard Bill play it when we played at the Dawn Club about 8 years ago, and told him that she never heard it played that well!!! Sadly, he died about 3 years later form cancer at the age of 53!!
Warm regards,

Bob,

I am trying to find out the date when Turk Murphy wrote "Pecan Pete".
Vickye Blatherwick said you had recorded the tune and might know when it was written.

Thanks,
Bruce Stangeland

I always thought Pecan Pete was written by Turk Murphy, you might want to check that out.  I think Bob Romans of Cell Block Seven JB recorded this song.
