Zoot Sims playing Hoagy Carmichael's 'Georgia' at the San Remo Jazz Festival in 1983. The pianist is Dick Hyman, on bass Jimmy Woode and drums Kenny Clarke.
Zoot a absolute GEM. Revered by all musicians. I for one heard him and this was back when Getz Mulligan Shelley Manne and Chet Baker were all there. You can always count on the Great Ones like Zoot Sims to bring those crystal clear Jazz sounds back into the Positive Years of Pristine Music. always respected and always a stand out that was Zoot Sims.
Zoot could play! Could play fluidly on the cool, fast tunes, but he was at his greatest on the slow ballads like this one. No one could top his ballad playing. A genius who was with us for all too short a time....
zoot always had a conduit straight to my heart.
There are a few very great saxophone players. Zoo Sims is one of them for sure.
Zoot could really play!!!

Too bad Kenny Clarke played in such a heavy-handed manner which detracts from the wonderful playing of the rest of the group.
there was poetry in his playing.
Great musician!
ZOOT - a great poet, a great musician, a great man.
Wonderful tone and playing of Zoot!

@Shawn200220012000200 He is one of my favourites - but don't let's go overboard - just enjoy all of him.

Really great ! Not only Zoot. Is there more available? Must be, as Sahib Shihab is the man who positioned the mike.
