Re: Use of tongue in jazz
Hey Sean,
Yeah, I did know those guys, and it happened by chance. I was coming from LA to Chicago and I had my horns with me. When I got in a Taxi in Chicago, the driver knew right away that I had saxophones. He if asked me if I wanted to meet Gene Ammons. I went to a club on the southside called the Apartment to see Gene, or Jug, as he was called play. Sonny Stitt showed up and they had a duel of the tenors. Later on I met them, and they invited me to jam. I learned so much from those guys. I miss those days. :( I owe everything to that taxi driver, and it was the chance of a life for and up and coming player.
Practice hard Sean!!!!
Terry
