I didn't know he played the sax, can't find him playing it anywhere.

It was on Wik Margaret so maybe it was wrong. It has taken me ten minutes to type this. I have been drinking falling down water so I better get off line utill I have recovered.

Just looked up Cannonball Aderley Rendez Vous and found links to just about all the sax players you could want. Also several other interesting links and a list of musicians who do not have their own site, but should have. A project there for anyone who has some free time (or when I retire).

Care to share the links with us, Teddy?

Once on the site on the left hand side under ABOUT SITE click CannonLink which will take you into the required page. I believe one could spend many happy hours there

Paul Desmond, hands down, no one even close in my estimation!:tiphat: He has the most ethereal and heavenly :angel: sound I've ever heard from any other sax player--alto or otherwise--in my life.:clap:WK.

In my opinion Paul Desmond fits the bill, (with or without Brubeck);
however there may be controversy on this viewpoint.

John, I think you are spot on with your Desmond opinion!:cheers::clap:No controversy or disagreement will you detect from this life-long jazz fan.:grin:

Along with Paul Desmond, I would add Jackie Mclean.:tiphat:
