Good insturmental sax jazz recommindations

Ben Webster does, indeed, get a sweet sound out of a sax like no one else. Makes that sax cry like a baby....

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Johnny Hodges, Stanley Turentine and Gene Ammons. Although not as popular as some of the above mentioned artists, they are excellent performers.

Someone mentioned Branford Marsalis, I agree and my favourite from him however is the album TRIO JEEPY. Great album to have in anyones collection.

Joe Farrell. Big in the 60's and 70's. Recorded a bunch of times w/ Chick Corea.

Viridian,
Yes, Roland Kirk is amazing, on just about every type of horn. IMHO,The Inflated Tear is the album that most needs a good remaster on 200g vinyl or even better 45rpm. Sublime music, and noisy pressings. Cheers,
Spencer
