Art Blakely is generally too much for me, but I know he's well loved around the world. I can appreciate the others' contributions here: Freddie Hubbard, Curtis Fuller, Wayne Shorter, Cedar Walton and Reggie Workman.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Webster

Born March 27, 1909, Kansas City, Missouri U.S.

Died - September 20, 1973 (aged 64), Amsterdam, Netherlands

The nickname ”The Brute and the Beautiful” was aptly given to tenor saxophonist Ben Webster. He became famous for his beautiful sound which gave his ballad playing a unique touch of tenderness, while his playing in faster tempos was virile and filled with growl, and when sober he was the kindest and gentlest man, witty and entertaining and the natural center of the gathering, while he was unpredictable and violent when he had consummated too much of alcohol. Despite this Dr. Jekyll-Mr. Hyde-personality he was a much loved musician and recorded a fairly amount of excellent records of which most still are in stock, due to the fact that he is the best selling tenor saxophonist in jazz.

Example - his later Soulville record is just great:

I just picked up the CD of this in a local store. It's fantastic. Chet is just like you'd think for 1979. The production is great. The accompanists are solid. Mellow and low key throughout.

Let's play along. Can we name all of the quotes in all of the solos? I got Work Song and Birdland in the piano solo.

Let's Get Lost is a 1988 American documentary film about the turbulent life and career of jazz trumpeter Chet Baker written and directed by Bruce Weber. The title is derived from the song "Let's Get Lost" by Jimmy McHugh and Frank Loesser from the 1943 film Happy Go Lucky, which Baker recorded for Pacific Records.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skalpel

Skalpel are Polish nu jazz DJs, musicians and record producers, Marcin Cichy and Igor Pudło, from Wrocław, Poland. Their musical style is a distinctive blend of hip hop beats, laced with samples lifted from the rich seam of Polish jazz records of the 1960s and 1970s.

The meeting of Ennio and Chet in 1962 was a sublime encounter and couldn't have come at a better time for both artists. For years, many Chet Baker fans weren’t even aware these four Italian sides existed, as the four RCA songs weren't released outside of Italy until the early 2000s. For another, when most listeners reach for the singing Baker, they usually turn to his work with pianist Russ Freeman, although these four Italian tracks are easily in the same league. In August, 1960, Chet Baker was arrested in Lucca, Italy. He was convicted of drug smuggling and forgery and sentenced to a year, seven months, and ten days in a Lucca prison. When he was released early, in December, 1961, RCA Italiana organized collaborative sessions with composer, arranger, and conductor Ennio Morricone.

I just stumbled across this and it sounds great. Worth a look for any Chet fan.
