Arthur Doyle was born on the 26th June 1944 in Birmingham, Alabama. Moving to Nashville to study at Tennessee State, he played jazz with ex-Sun Ra band member Walter Miller and rhythm and blues with David ‘Fathead’ Newman, Donny Hathaway and Gladys Knight. Shortly after arriving in New York in 1967, he discovered the extraordinarily gritty sound produced by singing and blowing into the horn at the same time and was soon in demand as a free player, sitting in with Sun Ra’s Arkestra at Slug’s Saloon on several occasions. In Paris during the 1980s he spent five years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit 'The Basement Tapes' was recorded in Paris during the summer of 2002 with Edward Perraud & Dan Warburton, which was later released in 2003 on the Durtro Label run by David Tibet of Current 93.
