But yeah, after Trane it seemed that every tenor player felt he HAD to take up soprano, but without developing an instrument-specific approach, IMO. I can do without Shepp & Pharoah on soprano, for instance. I have no instrument I'd rule out, though harpsichord and celesta are hard sells. Can't stand the sound of Kellaway's harpsichord on Ben's See You at the Fair. I wouldn't care if Frank Wess and James Moody had never played flute, but jazz would be a poorer place if Rahsaan, Dolphy, Sam Rivers and a few others never did. And Nicole Mitchell & James Newton. NICOLE IS A LOVELY ADORABLE YOUNG LADY AND GREAT MUSICIAN, BUT A LITTLE BIT OF HER FLUTING GOES A LONG WAY WITH ME. JAZZ WHISTLERS AND HARMONICERS I CAN DO WITH OUT. NAT ADDERLY'S ELECTRONIC CORNET SOUNDED JUST AWFUL TO ME. EDDIE HARRIS ELECTRIC SAX WASN'T GOOD TO MY EARS. Edited October 16, 2012 by alocispepraluger102 Quote
