    There's so many great ones, you can't make a list without forgetting someone obvious.

    Ah, missed that, thanks. When he played with my college jazz band, he gave a brief jazz clinic and someone asked him about expressing emotions in one's playing. He proceeded to illustrate techniques he'd use to express various emotions. Sure wish I had a recording of that session, it would be an essential resource.

    Here is Charlie Parker playing slowly.

    Beyond his incredible technique and phrasing, Charlie Parker had such a great Sax tone.

    'Everything Happens To Me'

    The late great Wilton Felder! Many don’t realize aside from his saxophone chops he had a secondary career playing Bass for many varied artists ranging from Joni Mitchell, The Jackson Five, Seals and Crofts, Barry White, too many to mention…Here he is on Barry’s famed Love’s Theme from 1973

    Great tone and great lines.


    Sorry to say I’ve never knowingly listened to Scott Hamilton before, but that was wonderful Very clear lines with a beautiful tone. Nothing revolutionary, but perfectly in the groove. I’ll seek out more. Thanks for sharing, Guy.

    Perchance, I'm sitting in the car right now waiting for SWMBO to have her nails done listening to Scott Hamilton and Bucky Pizzarelli on The Red Door. Wonderful album.

    Posting this on a guitar forum I realize that I have listened much more to jazz saxophonists and pianists than to guitarists.
    Great list...to which I'd add Art Pepper, Eddie Harris, Grover Washington and many others.

    I been looping a Benny Golson playlist since his recent passing. Wonderfully lyrical player and composer. Killer Joe fave tune.


    Great for jam sessions. The T-bone solo on that cut gets me. And this is the version that the Manhattan Transfer vocalesed.

    After listening to this 4 times, I have determined you meant Trombone solo and not T-Bone Walker solo. It's been a cuss of a week.
