trying to find the sidemen, sounds a bit like Red Prysock, or Frank Culley, but there were a lot of Honkers.

Found a credit list on one of his compilation albums…Listed on saxophone, Big Al Sears, Andrew L. Goodrich,D. Hudson Jr. Albert J. “Bud” Johnson, L. Johnson (alto), Alonzo “Buddy” Lucas, Charlie O’Kane. If I had to bet, I would say Big Al Sears, there is one note he bends in there that smacks me in the head saying “you’ve heard me before.”
