From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wilbur Odell "Dud" Bascomb (May 16, 1916, Birmingham, Alabama – December 25, 1972, New York City)[1] was an American jazz trumpeter, best known for his tenure with Erskine Hawkins.[2] He was a 1979 inductee of the Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame.

Early life

Bascomb was born the youngest of a family of ten children, another of whom was future tenor saxophonist Paul Bascomb. He played piano as a child but settled on trumpet, and first played with Hawkins at the Alabama State Teachers' School (now Alabama State University) in 1932, where Hawkins led the Bama State Collegians band.[1]

Career

He remained in Hawkins's employ until 1944, and soloed with him on many of his most well-known recordings.[1]

Bascomb eventually left Hawkins to play in his brother's septet, which became a big band later in the decade.[1] He played briefly with Duke Ellington in 1947.[1] In the 1950s, Bascomb played for three years at Tyle's Chicken Shack in New Jersey, leading a quintet which counted Lou Donaldson among its members. He toured Japan three times with Sam Taylor[2] and Europe with Buddy Tate in the 1960s,[1] in addition to touring and recording with James Brown. He recorded sparingly as a leader; his Savoy Records sessions in 1959-60 were not issued until 1986.
