William Count Basie, born in Red Bank, New Jersey, in 1904, was not always known as the Count.

He began his career as Bill Basie, an itinerant pianist who earned a livelihood banging keys in silent-movie theaters and travelling on the Theater Owners Booking Agency (TOBA) circuit, a hopscotch line of independent performance venues in black towns spanning the East, West, North, and South. Tough On Black Artists, or Tough On Black you-know-whats, were other names for TOBA.
