He didn't fly under my radar! :-) His origins are from swing and it can show some in his recordings. His music is upbeat, very accessible, and very enjoyable. And, for some as importantly, most of his recordings are on Concord Jazz and are excellent. I highly recommend him.
I'll list a few of my favorites, all on Concord Jazz. The first three are upbeat as opposed to laid back romantic late evening sax. I like them most but these seven are all quality Hamilton IMHO.

Off topic - I agree that everyone should have Mulligan meets Webster, or anyone else who 'meets Webster' like Peterson perhaps.
