Oh yes. Love those too. Especially Manhattan Jazz on Musicmasters. Just figured one could start up near the front and work your way to the back.  Which 3 would you choose, Ken?  I'd venture a guess that you've got all (or, at least, very nearly all) of Braff's recordings -- both with and without Hyman -- so you're uniquely qualified offer up some suggestions! Put those cards on the table, amigo!   Edited March 17, 2022 by HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW he is also a fine soloist with Benny Goodman bands I do enjoy very often also his sessions with George Barnes just depending in what kind of mood I am. Anyway iits fine music they play.  Edited March 17, 2022 by jazzcorner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
