Summing things up, Ira said: "He whipped game on me." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted March 17, 2022 Report Share Posted March 17, 2022 No, just always interested when his name pops up. Not at all a "familiar" name in the history books. He came back off the road (after Maynard, I think?) and lived out his life in Houston, only sometimes being seen there. And I had just listened to him on a locally recorded Arnette Cobb record, literally a day before seeing the reference here. The guy played with Tadd Dameron for crying out loud, he was more than just a name!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Kart Posted March 17, 2022 Report Share Posted March 17, 2022 I saw Jimmy Ford with Maynard's big band on a Birdland All Stars tour in the late 1950e. He got up to take a solo --a good one, too, very fiery -- and in the midst of it he had a violent spasm, one hand came off the horn and flapped up into the air above his head. I wondered about that, and even at the tender age of 13 or so, I had an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy played with Tadd Dameron for crying out loud, he was more than just a name!!!! I did know his name only from the picture in Jazz Master´s of the 40´s, where he with the Tadd Dameron group from Royal Roost. On the broadcasts from those sessions he does not appear. And right, I saw him .... I think it was in the mid 80´s with Arnette Cobb. As much as I remember he was a middle aged, a bit hefty guy with red hair, and played some really fine alto. I don´t know why I didn´t go to the bar and talk to him during intermission, maybe I would have asked him about his time with Tadd. I remember that was a three horn thing with Arnette Cobb, there was also a trumpet player, who´s name I don´t remember and he was not so great. Cobb of course was on crutches, but stood in front of the mike, didn´t sit down, played great and as much as I remember he drank whisky.... 13 hours ago, jazzcorner said: I´ll never forget when I bought it , I think it was 1977 and I was still at high school. Those years, when I was just exploring be bop, and at the same time free jazz and electric jazz. It was spring, and when I got home and spinned it, there was that french radio voice tellin somethin about Jean Sebastian Bach and Mozard, which I couldnt associate with the music, and then while this french man is still doin his bla bla, the group comes in with "Rifftide" , and those fast versions of Wee and Ornithology, and the first time I heard Good Bait and Lady Bird. I remember how much I loved Moody´s playing. Until then the only tenor players I knew and saw live were Griffin and Liebman. And Moody does some screams here, that sound more like post 60´s , 70´s tenor playing and I thought "almost like Liebman ". Miles is so great here, first class bop trumpet, equal to Diz and Fats and Kenny.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
