Known for his exquisite technique, a bright, clear sound, and Bird-like phrasing, saxophone great Phil Woods (November 2nd, 1931 – September 29th, 2015) recorded more than 60 albums as a leader, but was perhaps best known for his commercial work with Billy Joel and Paul Simon
Dexterous and strong-toned Booker Ervin's (October 31st, 1930 – August 31st, 1970) work rivaled that of his contemporary John Coltrane, but is sadly often overlooked. His 1964 Prestige release "The Space Book" is a must listen for jazz connoisseurs
