Hi Bret...thank you so much for all of your posts...they are incredible.!!..you are giving me a fantastic education which I am sharing with my students...
Everything Sonny says should be recorded. The man is a living encyclopedia. I'll never forget talking with him about Lester Young, Coleman Hawkins, Gene Ammons, Louis Jordan, and all the other greats of the time.

The tenor battles is a tradition that will always live

The tenor battles are still a major part of Jazz today. The tenor sax is to jazz like the guitar is to country music.

I envy the guys that were present on this recording, hearing these two excellent musicians playing a blues.
