Such a heavy player. So underrated!

[@rik-keymusic160]

Most jazz musicians are underrated... the majority of people is happy with only 4 chords over and over but criticize jazz for being weird and out of tune. These people don't understand what it takes to become a jazz musician or to live a passionated life, These people go to the same job everyday and cry on their death beds for being a slave to society ... it's so sad!

@@rik-keymusic160 A bit morose, but sure. Anything with a steep learning curve is misunderstood.

A great player. My first Alto exposure to this tune was Charlie Mariano.

This reminds me of Herb Geller with a little more nice subtone added.

Thank you for making it available! Love Dick Oats. Lee Konitz come to mind when I listen to him.
