He then began working the higher class brothels in the Storyville district as a solo pianist. He also led his own bands in the district at Abadie's, the Poodle Dog and Fewclothes. He worked regularly in King Oliver's band and joined the Clarence Williams Publishing Company in the early twenties. He became a 'race' recording director in Chicago for Okeh in the mid-twenties, and worked for Decca in the thirties. In the 40's and later he was mainly a composer and arranger. His credits include 'Trouble In Mind' and 'Riverside Blues'. Richard died in Chicago on December 8, 1945. |
