IMO David Murray is very overrated player,I've caught him live and on records since the early 80's. His Paul Gonsalves tribute concert in Boston 20 years ago was a joke. His abililites certainly don't merit him having one of the largest recorded outputs of any Jazz artist of the last couple of decades. A media darling early on when over-hyping new young saxophonists as the 2nd coming of Trane was commonplace. As a player he is not even close a Gary Thomas, Branford, Potter. When the critics would place a Chico Freeman or Murray above a Brecker in the Down Beat polls I'd just sit back and say WHAT!!!
I've never heard Gary Thomas before this video. He's ok. The other three in this Downbeat poll you speak of are all similar in that they are very show-offy and facile at times. Chico is the best among them. David is alright. Brecker is the most boring to me. None of them are unskilled. It's just a matter of preference.
Gary Thomas 🔥 🔥
さすが、４０歳に満たぬ若き時代、マレイの高音の、刃の如くエッジの聞いた響きに惚れ惚れする、時間を忘れる。それ故、いまがすこしさびしい。
Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Can’t work out if he’s playing an eub or an upright or electric bass
Electric Upright Bass I think
スマホで、視聴有難う。年一で、姫路ー新宿をＣＤ買出しのため往復。歳７５を迎えそろそろ強くなってきたが、そこへスマホの登場である。ポスト、マレイの出現を、心待ちする今日この頃である。否、ポスト、J．レッドマンといえばいいだろうか。
Gary Thomas can play, the other guy well ?
👎
First tune "After the Morning" should have ended after Hick's solo. The changes were too much for both saxes, especially the tricky bridge.
Hicks recorded this w Elvin and Cecil McBee on an albulm called Power Trio. It is jaw droppingly good.
