Speed Webb
Lawrence Arthur "Speed" Webb (18 July 1906 - 4 November 1994〔("Necrologies" )Washington University Libraries. Retrieved 2 May 2013.〕) was an American jazz drummer and territory band leader especially active in the late 1920s and early 1930s.
Webb first began playing on violin and mellophone before switching to drums. By 1923 he was performing locally around Peru, Indiana, and in 1925 co-founded the Hoosier Melody Lads, a cooperative band. In 1926 the band, led by Webb, had a recording session with Gennett Records (of Richmond, Indiana), although no discs were issued. Later that year the band moved to California, where it had residencies at various clubs and from 1928-29 appeared in several films,〔 including ''Sins of the Fathers'' (1928),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Full cast and crew for Sins of the Fathers (1928) )〕 ''Riley the Cop'' (1928) and ''His Captive Woman'' (1929). After 1929 Webb led a number of bands (see below), mostly as conductor but also at times as drummer and singer, up until 1938 when he retired from full-time performance.〔

==Discography==
There appear to be no extant recordings of Speedy Webb and his orchestras.〔 No discs were issued from the Gennet recording session of 1926, and the soundtracks of the movies he and his band appeared in seem to have been recorded by the various studio orchestras.〔
