Booker Little.
Check out his solo on If I Should Lose You. The emotion of that solo is ...(I don't know).Booker died young of health problems. It's a real shame.
Other favorites (if I may)...
Sweets Edison-the master of swing.
Freddie Hubbard- on Herbie's Maiden Voyage album especially.
Wynton Marsalis. Saw him live at the Village Vanguard. My jaw was dropped down to the floor,THE WHOLE SHOW.
Howard McGhee- great swingin'.
Chet, Miles, Lee Morgan, they're all great.
I wonder how many more greats there are I haven't heard yet.
Clark Terry-Especially on Oscar Peterson's Trio +1 album.
