Date of Birth: 1917 or 1912
[edit]I have read that Buster's date of birth was 1912.
But, the article had 1917.
- 1912:
- Abdul, Raoul. - September 14, 2005. - "Deep roots in 'Musical Buxton'". - New York Amsterdam News
- Miller, Mark (1997). - Such Melodious Racket: The Lost History of Jazz in Canada, 1914-1949. - Mercury Press. - p.141. - isbn 978-1551280462
- 1930 United States Federal Census -- OH -- Cuyahoga -- Cleveland
- 1917:
- Count Basie and His Orchestra: Its Music and Its Musicians. - Raymond Horricks. - 1957.
- Who's Who of Jazz!: Storyville to Swing Street. - John Chilton. - 1972.
- Guide to Jazz. - Hugues Panassié, Madeleine Gautier. - 1973.
- The Encyclopedia of Popular Music: Dutch Swing College Band - Heptones. - Colin Larkin. - 1998.
- The Later Swing Era, 1942 to 1955. - Lawrence McClellan. - 2004. - Page 219.
- The Rough Guide to Jazz. - Ian Carr, Digby Fairweather, Brian Priestley. - 2004.
Now I am guessing that most of these books just took their information from the previous one. So, if one got it wrong and then they just copied on down the line, they never dug deep enough to find the truth.
Do we need a birth certificate?
