chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 i just was wondering if they are west coast jazz people, or what, cause, afterall this is a wcj album, isnt it? dolo coker and laurence marable are also on it, so...? Quote
king ubu Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 Why not do a google? Martin Banks (trumpet) & Richard Boone (trombone) they are. Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted March 1, 2011 Author Report Posted March 1, 2011 no i know that, i have the record right here- but i mean, are they classic west coast jazz guys i dont know about? Quote
king ubu Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 Don't think so - sorry, got you wrong there... Banks is on Harold Land's "Take Aim", but that's about all I know of him, I think. Richard Boone starred in "Have Gun, Will Travel"... nah, seriously, Boone is from Arkansas, went with Basie later on (late 60s)... wiki has some basic info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_B._Boone Quote
Niko Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 here's an obit for Banks, he also played on Jimmy Woods first Contemporary album so imho it's fair to say he was a classic WCJ artist... Quote
brownie Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 chewy, if a player was born in Texas (or in Connecticut...) instead of the West Coast, does that make him a less interesting player?!? Quote

clifford_thornton Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 Martin Banks also played with Archie Shepp. Wonder if the fact that Hannibal has relocated to the near-Austin area will mean achieving a local legendary status? Quote
