@charltonr1 yes, by control i think u mean he didnt get too sentimental--in the way i feel that players like webster and getz did--but used a more subtle, understated approach that in the end is more powerful emotionally because of the understatement. call it the hemingway or updike approach to playing sax.
This plus the On the Trail video together show Zoot's, poignant emotional control, and flawless technique in the service of uniquely comprehensive mastery of the jazz mainstream that flowed from him.
