Mickey Fields
Wilfred "Mickey" Fields (1932/1933 – January 16, 1995) was a Baltimore-area jazz saxophonist, a local legend who refused to play outside the Baltimore area, although he was asked to leave Baltimore many times to go on the road with many famous bands.
He is recognised as one of Baltimore's most well-known jazz saxophonists and was a mentor to many other jazz musicians. Mickey created the "Monday Night Jam Session" at the Sportsman's Lounge, which allowed many young up and coming jazz musicians to perform onstage with him. He was also known for his constant encouragement of young artists.〔
==Early life==
Fields was born in 1932 to James and Etta Fields, in Towson, Maryland and was one of seven children. At an early age, Fields realized that he was naturally musically gifted. He had "perfect pitch" and was a self-taught musician, playing just about every instrument he could get his hands on.
At the age of 14, he taught himself how to play the saxophone. The story is that his older brother, Warren, won a saxophone in a crap game while heading back home aboard ship after WWII. When Mickey found it in the closet, he knew that was the instrument for him.〔
