Judging from his name the leader is of Armenian descent. Could musicians from these four cultures record like this today?

[JSngry]

Not for Prestige, they couldn't!

Cyrus Chestnut - The Dark Before the Dawn: Today's listening went from Benny Green to a run through all 3 Chestnut albums I own, with Revelation and Earth Stories being the other two.  Coincidentally, the last time I saw Chestnut was with Green, Kenny Barron and George Cables as part of a great piano tribute to Monk.

There's an unidentified tenor player on the Oudi Hrant record who sounds to be no stranger to Rudy's room, if you know what I eman. My first impulse ws Herbie Mann, but by the time that record was recorded (1962-63), I don't know...

Phil Bodner, maybe?
