BUNNY BRIGGS | 12/04/1947 | Barnet Show | |

10/27/1949 | 350.00 | ||
10-18-1950 | $450.00 | Satisfactory but overpaid | |
12/28/1951 | Illinois Jacquet's Revue - A good single. But his salary is becoming too big. The show paid him $550.00, the $50.00 was probably added so that the Gale Agency could get its commission. | ||
10/09/1952 | 400.00 | Excellent. Best performance he has given us ever. | |
10/16/1953 | $450.00 | Excellent. He separated his act with some good blues singing. | |
05/14/1954 | $500.00 | Charlie Barnett Show. Changed his song. Excellent. | |
12/31/1954 | $533.34 | Contract price: $500.00 plus 33.34 for extra shows. Same performance. Excellent. |
Transcription Notes:
The top entry of the transcription has no payment indicated on the Apollo card. Its possible that it would have been the same amount consistent with the 1948 & 1949 bookings ($350). But to avoid any potential discrepancy, will leave it blank and suggest future researchers reach their own conclusions.
