[Dixielandjazz] Wild William

[ROBERT R. CALDER]

I like quoting Humphrey Lyttelton, 

lines like how Wild Bill Davison comes in on a celebrated recording of  "Aunt Hagar's Blues" 

TEARING A TENT 

Definitely better than my derivative "Red" Nichols and "Shred" Davison 

and somebody else had the one about how Bechet scared the life out of every trumpeter bar Wild Bill. 

Actually the unintimidated pairing of Bechet with Jonah Jones makes the latter's first name a whale of a misnomer,
