jazzbo Posted December 29, 2004 Report Posted December 29, 2004 (edited) Okay, I know all about the stigma that the alto has for some. A lot of alto players don't get talked about much, some deservedly so. Here's a guy that should be talked about though: T. K. Blue, or Talib Kibwe if you will. Long a musical director/frontliner for Randy Weston, and also a leader in his own right. The man can PLAY! Edited December 29, 2004 by jazzbo Quote

garthsj Posted December 29, 2004 Report Posted December 29, 2004 Here is a picture of Dave Schildkraut' latest .... It is VERY disappointing to say the least ... It sounds as if he is wading through molasses .... Quote
AllenLowe Posted December 29, 2004 Report Posted December 29, 2004 (edited) well - I produced and released that Schildkraut CD - I recorded it live in New Haven 1979 - I think he plays quite brilliantly - I'm willing, in the interests of argument, to send it to anyone here for cost and let them judge for themselves - assuming this does not violate any commercial rules here - let me know if you are interested - Edited December 29, 2004 by AllenLowe Quote
AllenLowe Posted December 29, 2004 Report Posted December 29, 2004 wanted to add - Porter Kilbert - Quote
