Bill Holman Story (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) |
 | | Bill (Willis) Holman's beautiful house is tucked away in the Hollywood Hills, within easy reach of the Union buildings in Vine Street where he rehearses his big band, mostly on Thursdays. |
 | | Many will remember Holman for his contributions to the Stan Kenton and Count Basie libraries and for three outstanding albums, a break of 30 years from recording, and then a convincing reminder of his craft in the WORLD CLASS CD on the JVC label that preceded the current release. |
 | | This was in 1975, and Bill McKay, one of the co-owners of Dontes (late lamented LA jazz venue), said I could have a string of Sundays if I could get a band together. |
