Subject: RE: Great Guitar and Sax players of your era
hi jerry
I agree with gerry Mulligan....fantastic.
I am also a Lionel Hampton afficionado - surely the best ever exponent of the vibraphone. I have some of his stuff where he features Earl Bostic - what a sound !!
I also have some of Earl's old 78's like Flamingo, Harlem Nocturn etc etc.
This is music to listen to, not background slush. I lock myself in my music room when I play this kind of music - no kids, no wife no nothing...lol
As for guitar well Barnel Kessel and Wes Montgomery do it for me.
Cheers
