Los 470 | Hot Discography
Extensively signed by many of the leading lights of the Ellington and Basie orchestras, including Duke Ellington, Count Basie and Lester Young, the autographs acquired by young jazz aficionado William Lawson “Bud” O’Donnell of Massachusetts, most likely when both the Ellington and Basie bands visited Boston in the late 1930s/early 1940s. Ellington played an extended residency at the Ritz Carlton Hotel from July to August 1939 and at the Southland Café in January 1940, after which Count Basie and his Orchestra took over for a four week residency in February. O’Donnell was killed in a mid-air collision aged just 22 in January 1944 while serving as a 2nd lieutenant with the 346th Combat Crew Training Squadron. Provenance: William Lawson “Bud” O’Donnell (ownership inscription to front free endpaper).
Octavo (195 x 130 mm). Rebound in 1940 by the U. Holzer bindery of Boston, Mass., in dark blue cloth with gilt spine, original wrappers preserved. Loosely inserted indexing sheet identifying location of autographs.
