I remember reading somewhere that someone (not sure who) once asked John Lewis whether he was influenced by Clyde Hart. Lewis had never heard of Hart, but their styles do resemble each other's. Hart appeared on many great swing recordings. He, Roy Eldridge, and Chu Berry, as John Chilton recounts it in his bio of Roy, used to travel around together after hours looking for cutting contests.

I give up. How do you get from Leonard Swain to Art Garfunkel? QUOTE(maren @ Nov 18 2005, 02:57 PM) Beau Bridges Honi Coles Leonard Swain * Art Garfunkel Bootsy Collins Buzz Aldrin

Sidney Bechet recorded on soprano in 1940 in a piano-less and drum-less quartet, anchored by Carmen Mastern's guitar. I'm unsure whether this was the first instance of horns recording with just a guitar to provide chords, but I wouldn't think so.
