Delta Dancng Mural, Leland, MS - a photo on Flickriver

            Mural entitled "Delta Dancing" on a wall in Leland, Mississippi.  The mural honors a local dance band called "Doc's 3 B's". Led by "Doc" Booth on sax with his son Dr. Patrick Booth on trumpet, Boogaloo Ames on keyboards, Bubba Louis Hubbard on drums, Ralph Morrow on bass, and Deanna Harper on vocals, they played every Thursday night for 15 years at Lillo's Italian Restaurant located on the east edge of town right off Highway 82. This mural is located on the west wall of the building at 3rd and Main Streets.

The band leader, Dr. William Harper "Doc" Booth Jr., was born in 1929 in Maben, Mississippi.  An accomplished musician, he played the clarinet and saxophone in both high school and college before attending medical school and becoming a general practitioner and surgeon.  He retired from medicine due to health reasons and moved to Leland in 1987. After retirement, he renewed his earlier passion for music by organizing Doc’s 3 B’s, which provided enjoyment for many Deltans for 15 years.  He passed away on September 12, 2014 at the age of 84.
