| 2011 - Billy Diamond, a bassist and a native of New Orleans, Louisiana passed away on this day at 95. He was given a trumpet by Louis Armstrong as a teenager that he never learned to play. Instead he opted to come under the mentorship of Oscar "Papa" Celestin he became a Dixieland bass player. In the summer of 1947, the pianist, Antoine Domino, impressed him enough that he asked Domino to play in his combo, the Solid Senders. He nicknamed the kid "Fats" because Domino reminded him of renowned pianists Fats Waller and Fats Pichon. He became Domino's road manager in the early 1950s. In the 1950s and 60s, Diamond promoted other artists, including Shirley and Lee, Huey "Piano" Smith, James Booker and Solomon Burke. |
