on a straight sopranosax for a change!

From app. 1970 to 1980 my family (my wife and I and my parents) belonged to the New Jersey Jazz Society and got to hear and see these guys and many other great classical Jazz musicians often sometimes in intimate venues (a members house) as well as Jazz Society sponsored events. I must say I miss those years mucho. Saw Warren Vache and Scott Hamilton literally grow up . Ah me....

Got damn he's playing to much horn. A total master

Not only is it a beautiful solo, there is a complete communication with the song, the musicians, the audience. Music flows out naturally because everything is connected, especially the soul of Bob Wilbur and his horn. "Spinning" note is more than a trick-it is suspended in the air and you can hear it fill the room and makes the solo almost a living thing. Compare this with some of the modern cats playing detached 16th and 32nd notes that have no connection. How you gonna suspend a 32nd note?

I had the pleasure of hearing the Soprano Summit live in the 70s. This really took me back. Thanks...it doesn't get any better than this if you like clarinet and soprano !

Bob Wilber? For REAL!? Mr., you're TOPS with me! Discovered you on a Jack Teagarden album on clarinet, then. Bless you BUNCHES!

Hi Bob and Pug
DOn't know if you remember me, but Alan Littlejohn was my father.
We will be coming to see you at Pinner next year as I just found out you are playing there. This is fantastic! And it's great that you are still playing. Look forward to seeing you. Nick.

The solos by Bob Wilber and Kenny Davern are miraculous and beautiful. This kind of playing is enough to make a grown man cry.

There's no doubt that what you are looking at is the greatest soprano sax playing of today. Bob Wilber absorbed the genius of Bechet at first hand, apparently becoming indistinguishable from Bechet at the Ryans Club sessions, but then he moved on to the sound and style you see here. Two fabulous LP's come to mind, one with Maxine Sullivan and one with Bud Freeman, but its unfair to pick and choose just two.

Bob once told me that was an old trick of Bechet's. He used to hold a low Bb and swing the horn around to create a weird effect! That was Bechet for you :)

Hello Nick, I enjoyed your appearance with Bob at Upton in August 2006. I also have good memories of your performances at Mickleton a long long time ago. Best wishes, Mac.
