For sure this is great music, but I can't deny myself to compare this tune with that performed by Norrbotten Big Band featuring the composer him self, Benny Golson that was touring the Sweden jazz scenes this summer, despite his age at 90 year. This time I vote on the later. Benny told about the story behind "Killer Joe" and that his wife wasn't particular keen on it until the money come in. Then she loved it! Sorry Toots, I like you too and the band of course.
Toots is as close to unique as a musician can get. And a wonder to hear every time.
Don't nobody play jazz harmonica, that's for sure! Toots was a consummate jazz musician!
Toots was a rara avis, one of a kind. He remains here with us every time we play his music.
I'm gonna miss you Toots, forever..
Toots. What a great musician. May he rest in peace.
You have got to hear him play guitar and sing.
Jeff Hamilton on drums. Nice!! 👍

My man Toots Thielman on that jazz harmonica. Killer Joe!

Sweet Toots, Toot Sweet. You've long been on the Forever Track.
