William Billy Emerson - Vocal Billy Love - Piano Jewell Briscoe - Tenor Saxophone Moses Reed - Tenor Saxophone Calvin Newborn - Guitar Kenneth Banks - Bass Phineas Newborn Sr. - Drums In November 1955, Billy Emerson was back at Sun to record what would prove to be his last session. On the twenty-second of the same month, he was recording for Vee-Jay in his newly adopted home town, Chicago. For his last Sun session, he was reunited with Phineas Newborn, Sr's nightclub band. Emerson rated his work on ''Something For Noting'' very highly, and with good reason, ''That was the best'', Emerson said later. ''That was when I really found my style. You're listening to the real Billy The Kid Emerson''. Talking to Jim O'Neal later, he was a little more forthcoming. ''That song came about from a Butterbeans and Susie routine. 'Now looka here, Susie, you sure is tight, you ain't never gonna treat yo' papa Butter right. 'She made a reply and he would sing, 'Something for noting seems to be your/You oughta get yourself a monkey 'cause you sure don't need no man''. He's remembering Butterbeans & Susie's 1930 record of ''Papa Ain't No Santa Claus (And Mama Ain't No Christmas Tree)''. Talk about handling it on.
