[Doumbeck]

OH come on.. these cats play good.. dont be a snob...accoustic bass would be nice.. but hey..

[tadd1]

Now I understand why Fats hated Key West... : - (

Poor Theodore is probably rolling in his grave right now.

[saintkirk51]

[FatsBlows]

Dear Will,

Thanks for providing this link. I'm a great Fats fan and host a Website in his honor entitled "Nostalgia: A Tribute to the Great Fats Navarro." Please let me know if there is a third Bee Bop Tribute being planned and if so post the info (dates, etc.) and I will promote it my site.  Thanks.

Take care,

Fats Blows

The Green Parrot in Key West is my favourite bar anywhere. Wish I was there right now....

[MarcelaMorgan]

This is great that Green Parrot honors Fats Navarro. I'm all for a monument, statue, what have you, something!

[DNACRE]

Music content presented professional.

But nothing to do with Fat's recordings. Flugelhorn? And that rhythm section - never.

[willinkeywest]

man, lighten up! It's key West, afterall. These folks donated their time, and these are the musicians that could do the gig. Better than nothing, wouldn't you say?

[FM897]

Yeah, you're right. No Fats Navarro songs were played, for some reason. And what about the rhythm section?

[resonanceman]

Fats would be proud.

[padleynj]

Uh oooo....We have the jazz police out there again. So what if navarro never played flugel!

At least someone is recognizing his music!! He was a great loss at such a young age as well as Brownie and Lee Morgan. Get over it and enjoy yourself!

[one4two5]

yea, lets play football at a Babe Ruth tribute! WTF

[one4two5]

5 stars for the rendition, even though I doubt Fats ever played a flugelhorn.

Clifford Brown picked up a lot of his playing style from Fats, you can hear the influence in his jazz.

Nice work.

[davjazdog]

Bravo guys! Sounds great and I love all these guys!

[satziebaby]

AMEN!!!!!

Fats Navarro needs a monument in his home town for his contribution to Jazz music. I'm surprised that there isn't one. People should get in touch with their municipal politicians.
