<p>to those who love jazz</p>

<p>who's your favorite jazz saxophonist or artisit in general?</p>

2

<p>Saxophone players: Coleman Hawkins, Sonny Rollins, Dexter Gordon among the old guys. Joshua Redman, Eric Alexander among the new.</p>

<p>Also love Horace Silver, Thelonius Monk, Duke Ellington, and many, many more.</p>

<p>Marc Antoine, he has some great songs, especially in the Urban Gipsy album</p>

<p>Sadly a lot of them toil in relative obscurity:</p>

<p>Check out Billy Harper, big tenor sound, polyrythms galore.</p>

<p>Buck Hill, a retired DC mailman delivers! </p>

<p>The late Shirley Horn............</p>

<p>I like Najee and George Benson. Also, a lot of the songs by the artist Sade come on the jazz station, and her band is a jazz band. I absolutely LOVE her!</p>

If only he had lived past his 20's, he was the next great musician.
