His professional name is currently Juini Booth, though his nickname has been spelled Jiunie, Junie, Joony, Jooney, Joonie, Juni, Juney, and Junius, over the course of his career.〔"His nickname has appeared variously as Jooney, Joonie, Joony, Juini, Juni, Junie, Juney, and Junius, though in the late 1990s his preferred spelling was Jiunie (but this of course may change)." Gary W. Kennedy, "Jiunie Booth". ''The New Grove Dictionary of Jazz''. Oxford Music Online.〕 Booth began playing piano at about age eight, and switched to bass at 12. He worked with Chuck Mangione in his hometown in 1964-65 before moving to New York City around 1966, where he played with Eddie Harris, Art Blakey (1967), Sonny Simmons (1967-68), Marzette Watts (1966, 1968), Freddie Hubbard (1968-71), and Gary Bartz (1970).
