Biography :

Saxophonist, bandleader Jimmy Coe contributed to so many classic Indianapolis rock & roll and R&B records. In the late '50s, Coe recorded fronting an orchestra for the new Chess label, cutting tracks such as "Every Day of the Week and "Shuffle Stroll." In the early '60s, Coe and his group provided backup for the contest-winning vocal group the Students, and the saxophonist may also have accompanied other vocal groups, or participated in other recordings for other microlabels in the Indianapolis area.
