Automatic translation:
Wild Bill Davis, was an exceptional musician and a virtuoso of the Hammond organ, an instrument clearly influenced and used in American churches. We can say without a doubt that Wild Bill Davis is together with the excellent organist, Milt Buckner, one of the most brilliant musicians of this instrument.
Wild Bill Davis was a musician bridge between the orchestras of the swing era and the black sounds of the Rhythm & Blues of the fifties and sixties. He went along with guitarist Floyd Smith and drummer Chris Culumbus who first formed a jazz combo with the organ in between.
His first beginnings as a musician were as guitarist in 1939 in the band of Milt Larkin 'where they played as a couple of saxophonists the great Eddie Cleanhead Wilson and the teacher Arnett Cobb. The first guitarist of the band was the great Freddie Green. In 1945 he went to the piano with the quintet of Louis Jordan and his group called "Louis Jordan's and Symphony Five" from where they produced arrangements for musicians such as Duke Ellington or Count Basie. Precisely with this last one collaborated in the arrangements of the famous subject of Basie titled "April in Paris".
Admirador of the sound of the piano and the organ of the teacher Fats Waller, Wild Bill Davis, begins to rehearse in its activities with the Hammond organ and manages to be a virtuoso of the instrument dominating it perfectly. His performances with Johnny Hodges or Paul Gonsalves are still remembered. Already in the seventies the appearance of basic organists in jazz such as Jimmy Smith or Bill Dogett eclipsed the stage and died practically forgotten by all.
