Leben und Wirken

Eugene Fields, der linkshändig Gitarre spielte, war Ende der 1930er-Jahre in New York Mitglied im Orchester James P. Johnson, mit dem erste Aufnahmen entstehen. In den 1940er-Jahren arbeitete er u. a. mit Red Allen, Mildred Bailey, Bea Wain und dem Geiger Eddie South, in dessen Gruppe er 1941 an einer Jam-Session in der Carnegie Hall (Cafe Society Concert) mitwirkte. 1941 war er an einer V-Disc-Session mit dem Vokalensemble The Charioteers, begleitet von James Sherman (Piano), Billy Taylor (Bass) und Jimmy Hoskins (Schlagzeug) beteiligt; 1943 trat er mit einem eigenen Trio in Newark auf. Nach Kriegsende begleitete er als Mitglied des Ellis Larkins Orchestra die Sängerin Ann Hathaway; 1947 folgten Trioaufnahmen mit Ellis Larkins und dem Bassisten Beverly A. Peer für Majestic Records. Im Bereich des Jazz war er zwischen 1939 und 1950 an acht Aufnahmesessions beteiligt, zuletzt mit dem Sänger und Schlagzeuger Tom Fletcher für Decca.

Er ist nicht mit dem gleichnamigen Trompeter zu verwechseln, der in dieser Zeit u. a. bei Coleman Hawkins spielte.

Bubba Smith’s net worth, biography, fact, career, awards and life story

Bubba Smith net worth:  Bubba Smith  is a storage auction participant who has a net worth of $500 thousand. He has accumulated his net worth through many years in the storage auction and reselling industry, in which participants place bids on the contents of abandoned storage facilities. The warehouse he owns along with Ricky Smith purchases items at auction and resells them for profit. He specializes in technological know how, which is a valuable asset to the team since the older Ricky isn’t as knowledgeable about technology. One disadvantage in the field of storage auctions that Bubba suffers from is his extreme claustrophobia. As you might imagine, his difficulty being in enclosed spaces makes his trips into storage facilities a bit of a rough process. He soldiers on, though, as part of one of the most formidable pairs in the business. He is also a serious art buff, which may surprise those that judge him by his rural nickname. He enjoys fine art from all eras and artists, and has ambitions to one day collect enough art to start his own gallery. No matter what the future holds for Bubba Smith, his skills at the auction block should serve him well.
