I'm at the pearly gates and they tell me I can only bring in one jazz cd


Prez and Teddy (Lester Young and Teddy Wilson). To my fellow jazz fans if you've never checked this out do so. I play it again...and again...and.......

At one place they ain't giving you the choice, the other one would become a hell for me, having only one cd to play over and over again for eternity! This is why I can't play any best ever games, variety is the essence of what's best for me.

If the only thing they'd let me bring in was Jazz, I'd turn around and go the other way - what's the expression? "The devil's got all the best music!". For my tastes, he does! 

Easy, Sonny Stitt could carry a melody and improv it at the same time.

IMO , the greatest American Jazz Man !
