Jimmy Wilson (blues musician)
Jimmy Wilson (1921 or 1923 – February 5, 1965) was a West Coast blues singer, best known for his 1953 hit “Tin Pan Alley”.
==Life and career==
Born near Lake Charles, Louisiana in 1921 or 1923,〔Komara, Edward and Lee, Peter (2004). ''Blues Encyclopedia''. Routledge, p. 1092〕 Wilson was singing with a gospel quartet in California when Bob Geddins began recording him in 1951, initially with his band Bob Geddins' Cavaliers. Further recordings were made under Wilson's own name, often accompanied by guitarist Lafayette Thomas. Some of the masters were purchased by Aladdin, and Wilson then recorded for Aladdin in 1952 before returning to record for Geddins' Big Town Records in 1953.〔Leadbitter, M., Fancourt, L. and Pelletier, P. (1994): Blues Records 1943-1970 Vol 2, London: Record Information Services, pp. 715-717〕 The first side released,〔 "Tin Pan Alley", reached number 10 on the US ''Billboard'' R&B chart and helped to establish Geddins as a major figure in West Coast blues.〔Santelli, Robert (2001). ''The Big Book of Blues: A Biographical Encyclopedia''. Penguin Books, p. 524, ISBN 978-0141001456〕 Wilson continued to record for Big Town, and a few other labels,〔 but failed to capitalise on the success of "Tin Pan Alley" and returned to Louisiana, where he made further recordings for local labels.〔
Wilson died on February 5, 1965 in Dallas, Texas.〔
