    You're kidding, Grossman at #8.... He is the NUMBER 1 and BOB BERG #2 then Bill Pierce and the rest of your list...Sorry you lost me when you put Grossman. He has more talent then anyone on the list. Ask Joe Allard.....The stories are legendary... Ughhhhh

    Bernie! Thank you so much for reminding me of Gary Thomas. Used to listen to him quite a bit and somehow I forgot about him over time. I love that Yusef influence in his tone.

    • @GeoffBournes

    • @larsjacobsenmusic
      @larsjacobsenmusic 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Geoff Bournes Billy Harper, I think you meant to say, IS a great and undersung tenor player, whose tone, in particular, seems to be an influence on Gary Thomas. Billy Hart, the drummer, also great, played with Herbie Hancock's Mwandishi, and many others.

    • @roderickberry2508

    Billy Pierce is a bad ass - I once heard a version of his for Monk's 'Epistrophy' on D.C. Public Radio circa 1994 that was killin but I was never able to find again.

    I met Ralph Moore in the 90s? Very cordial cool Brit and he let me play his Yamaha soprano they just gave him lol. He was with Freddie Hubbard! I know Tim Warfield from York, P.a. near Harrisburg where I grew up. He left Howard U architect program to play jazz tenor full time. Always liked his playing and with him. Both cats are cool brothers

    [P.S. How about Rick Margitza , Courtney Pine , Eli Degibri on the list?

    • @edge60able
      @edge60able 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      They're not on the list because everyone that plays tenor already knows them and because they're about 100/100 square jazzmen

    • @YiannisKassetas
      @YiannisKassetas 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      so you mean that everybody knows Eli Degibri? wrong. Everybody knows Bob Berg though.Also explain to me what do you mean by 100% square jazzmen? Also have you seen Courtney Pine live?? All these guys have played different styles of jazz and music in general and they are killers!!!

  • @egyptianminor
    @egyptianminor 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That Rich Perry solo must be from the late 1970s....Looks like it's the Thad Jones - Mel Lewis Orchestra. I believe M-BASE originator, Altoist Steve Coleman was in the band at that time too.

    @matthewriggen4334 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Where's Mark Shim? He works with Vijay Iyer and he's kickass.
    I also think it's telling that a lot of the footage these 'modern' tenor players is shot on is on legacy media--tape, VHS, etc, which means it's ~20+ years old. Most of these videos were shot when Yugoslavia was a country and we called AIDS 'gay-related immunodeficiency disorder'. What definition of 'modern' are we using?

    • @GeoffBournes
      @GeoffBournes 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Matthew Riggen for TRANE forward by definition would be modern

    • @mattgros86
      @mattgros86 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @wyndhleodumegwu253

    Billy Pierce, wasn't he ex-Art Blakey's bandsman, as well as mentor and instructor to Bransford and Wynton Marsalis?
    Ralph Moore was/is an excellent lyricist. Adore his growls.
    Tim Warfield is one of the young lions, from which pack James Carter has broken away.
    Cat can converse tirelessly - Tim.
    Bob Sheppard and that sound! Definitely a 'Trane alumnus...
    Walter is new to me. He has structure and improvisational organization.
    I adore and admire him.
    Steve Grossman is a known able-bodied virtuoso who, I agree, needs much more renown and acclaim.
    Bob Berg and Michael Brecker :'52 and '49 - my two main 'Coltranian Jazzicians (RIP)
    Ralph Bowen has been added to my list with his great sound, dexterity and 'Tranean embellishments.
    These dudes are all equally great - in their own right.
    Antoine Roney, tenor saxophone brother of Wallace Roney, trumpeter...
    Avery Teodresse(sp), Abraham Burton, Courtney Pine, Andy Sheppard...
    Mr. Bernie, thank you much.

      A Strathon. The baffle is adjustable. Some players had trouble with them leaking. I was very surprised to see Mr Thomas using one on his 10M back in the day. I remember them from the mid 70s.

      Younger players: Sharel Cassity (totally shocked you wouldn't name her since you seem to know your stuff), Karolina Strassmeyer (saxophonist with the WDR Big Band....
      There are quite a few...maybe none would be on your list of favorites, but plenty of great female players who are respected on the scene.

    • @It.wasnt_me
      @It.wasnt_me 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is actually a VERY good list USSBS! Just as I got to #9 I was thinking to myself, "what? no Ralph Bowen?" and then, #10 was Ralph, and I had to say, "well played, Bernie, well-played."
    Who did you leave out? Somewhere, in one of these lists should be tenor man Danny Walsh. He's been a killing somewhat underground cat in New York for many years:

    As a side note ---- if you play as many notes as you possibly can and ALWAYS shove in every possible substitution you can dream of then NO ONE will figure out that your stuff doesn't really fit the changes anyway. Also, isn't it amazing that all these songs, whatever they are, all sound the GD same?

  • @iJiggsy
    @iJiggsy 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    All of these are great players, but I wouldn't classify a single one of these tenor players as "modern", whether you're talking style or age.
    I mean, most of the recordings you chose were from the 80's and early 90's. I feel like if college kids today can't remember seeing these guys live, they aren't modern. Most of these players were in their prime before college aged students were even alive.
    I mean, Bob Berg died before kids in high school today were even born, so can this really be considered modern at all?
    I'm not hating on any of the artists you chose, I just feel like you shouldn't label them as "modern". They may have been modern, but that was a long long time ago.
