Sam Most, Schildkraut, Mettome

[BeBop]

I'm traveling, so I don't have access to any of his recordings, but Sam Most was a really nice guy.   He offered to play at my wedding, and, while it didn't happen, I think he was sincere.  For a while, I was catching him all over the place; our travel schedules just had some odd synchronicity.  (The same was true of Kenny G - another seemingly okay guy - but that's another story.)  In my opinion, he didn't record enough on tenor - or play enough tenor in concerts.  I used to tease him a little about it, and, sure enough, he'd pull out the tenor.  I think there is some recorded on But Beautiful and on one of his early albums ("New Star"? "Debut"?)  IIRC, there may be scattered tracks on alto and bari.
