Elmer Williams

[Late]

I just discovered the excellent YouTube page of Charles Iselin, who puts together videos of (mostly) complete solographies, making sure to credit original compilers (such as Phil Schaap). Check out the The Complete Solos of Elmer Williams, tenor player for Chick Webb, Noble Sissle, and Fletcher Henderson, among others:

Valuable work, and what a nice gift to the public.

I did not know that but I've had a lot of contact with Charles as he was one of Schaap's assistants for some period of time before Schaap died. Nice and helpful guy.
