Wynton playing Knozz Moe King on a 1984 video
In this old video (1984) Wynton plays with his quartet the tune: Knozz Moe King.
Larry Willis played the piano, Jeff Watts was on the drums and Charnett Moffett on the base.

GREAT!
J.T.Watts is the drummer……who are the pianist and bass player?.. I can’t identify.
Is this video a part of “Trumpet Kings”?.
Any idea about what does it means “knozz moe”???.
Thanks in advance to any answer.

Knozz Moe comes from the word
NO SMOKING
put it together
NOSMO KING
The story goes, a woman was giving birth and saw that on a door, the break in the door being at the MO and KI. her last name was king. She thought they had named her baby for her. So she wrote down NOSMO as her Baby’s first name.

An interesting “playing phonetics” story, and so…..really musical.

Smooth. Check out the original version on Wynton’s first album and again on Live at Blues Alley.

great video, but this isn’t Knozz-Moe-King.
as Trent said, this is the blues “Later” recorded in the same album as Knozz-Moe-King, “Think of One”.
that’s Knozz-Moe-King.
