srellek Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Maybe this has been done before here, but was thinking about the greatest group I would assemble of players still around today. How about: Sonny Rollins (ts) Ornette Coleman (as) Paul Bley or Keith Jarrett (p) Charlie Haden (b) Roy Haynes or Paul Motian (dr) Just couldn't make up my mind on the piano and drum chairs. (How's that for decisiveness?) Anybody else have a dream team of cats still on the planet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randyhersom Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Clark Terry (t) Pat Martino (g) Jim Hall, Cecil Taylor and Evan Parker could all be considered. The trumpet ranks are a bit depleted, perhaps Charles Tolliver or Bobby Bradford can give Clark a break if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranemonk Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Have we forgotten... Lee Konitz on Alto... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danasgoodstuff Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 konitz, ornette, rollins - any two of these would probably be great, all three maybe not? my time machine/lost tapes fantasy would involve Rollins & Lee Morgan together, or Lou D, Stanley T, Grant G, John P & Idris M, or Lester & Gil Evans, or?

Chas Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Well, this one's fantastical in the sense that one of the guys hasn't played out in decades, and one has moved away from straight-ahead jazz, but how about : Frank Strozier with Eddy Louiss, Kenny Burrell and Jimmy Cobb ?

papsrus Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Are recording studios typically kept chilly? Or is Mr. Rudd just being fashionable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 I would enjoy hearing Rudd and Rollins together, especially circa the mid 1960s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 I would say Bird & Sonny Murray, but we already got Jimmy Lyons & Sonny Murray, so why bother with finding some dead guy and bringing him back to life, as well as taking some living guy and then transporting them both back more than 45 years in time (as opposed to 45 years in BTUs)? Too much math for R&B! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
