Frogman, although it's possible Dave Burns is on some of my albums, I don't recall the name. Here's a real nice clip by Dave that indicates how good he was;

Nice! Beautiful playing by Burns. Hint of a Lee Morgan influence and I love it when a player starts a solo without any ambiguity as he does at 1:50; a simple three note statement, concise and to the point as if saying "check this out". Amazing how players of this caliber are forgotten sometimes. Thanks! |
When it comes to Christmas Music, I'm pretty conservative; this album by Kenny Burrel appeases both my conservative and jazz sides. I would imagine every aficionado who celebrates Christmas has this one in his collection; it cooks and projects the spirit of Christmas at the same time. Right now I'm trying to decide which is my favorite cut; so far it's between "My Favorite Things" and "Little Drummer Boy". Give it a listen and tell us your favorite cuts on this album, and share with us your most special Christmas Music of whatever orientation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7PfDn0KhtI https://www.youtube.com/user/edawworld Enjoy the music. |
Aldo I have that Burrell's album, and do think that is great, Frogman's subject of great but now almost unknown players is more intriguing. So, I hope you all would not mind if I post yet another trumpet player, that has become 'famous' because of his obscurity. Oxymoron, I know. His name is Dupree Bolton, and here is link from a great album of Curtis Amy 'Katanga'. Ray Crawford is great too, as always. http://youtu.be/Oc6cJYn2T7M http://youtu.be/RofQwbDY2YI |
