Jazz Cameos Revisited


Recommended Posts

maybe so mr. lowe but i know in my heart of hearts that barney was a jazz purist at heart, and although i am sure he was more than pleased to be a musical partisipant in the pioneering work of phil spector, the true spirit of barney shines through his bebop work.

Who played the sax solo on Pink Floyd's "Us and Them" (I think that's the right tune)?

It was a Brit saxophonist named Dick Parry (pitches up on other Floyd albums too- I think he's on Division Bell). Not heard him in any other contexts; I believe most of his recordings are in rock situations rather than jazz.

How about Sting's first post-Police band with Branford Marsalis, Kenny Kirkland, Darrel Jones and Omar Hakim?

I'll never forget the headline of the Village Voice review dissing that project. It read, "Sting With Negroes."

(Dissing Sting's attempt to buy credibility, rather than the band itself.)

Between a rock and a hard place: Branford between Sting and Wynton. Ouch!
