Anyone using legato techniques for clean jazz playing?

that sounds good john but I wouldn't call that "legato" technique only because legato technique has come to represent a very specific way of playing lines and arpeggios utilizing the 2-1-2-1 technique popularized by Tim Miller.

First I have heard of it. I must have missed the memo. Never mind.

The album this track is from is not an one Allan was proud of (and you can hear why on the electric tracks, out of tune bass, fluffs etc, AH sounds amazing as usual) but the acoustic takes are lovely imho. He also plays acoustic on his duo albums with pianist Gordon Beck

He hated Velvet Darkness, if I remember correctly he said they told him they were just going to rehearse but the guys in the control room was recording everything. And then Allan being Allan, not having control of the outcome, well, he wasn't pleased. And who can blame him?

I have it on vinyl and I do like the Wtc cover art.
Also some of the albums with Gordon Beck are really nice, and pretty rare. At least back in the days.
