Hi wonderful job, someone had to do it! However, my New DESOR says the 12/15/28 session also has Bubber Miley on trumpet (and he takes the first solo) in addition to Whetsel and Jenkins. The female singer is actually Ozie Ware, who is noted in the New DESOR as probably a pseudonym for Ozie McPherson.
ReplyDeleteGood call! Thank you very much. Confirmed with Lord's disco. New DESOR says the personnel is the same as the following session on Okeh. Corrections made and thanks again!
