1931 - Buddy Petit (Joseph Crawford), traditional jazz cornetist from New Orleans, Louisiana died on this day. He was born in 1887, and his peers claim that he was the equal of Louis Armstrong. Early in his career, he co-led a band with Jimmy Noone, but mostly played one night stands. He traveled the Gulf Coast financing his high living with his horn. He played for a while on the steamers, and was said to have died from overeating at a July 4 picnic. Buddy died in New Orleans. |
