Brownian Motion Posted September 29, 2005 Report Posted September 29, 2005 I've taken quite a fancy recently to his excellent playing. He seems to have one foot planted firmly in late swing and one in bop, but without any of the preciousness often afflicting similarly situated players. Lou can be heard to wonderful advantage on "C'Est Magnifique", a concert recording by George Masso of all Cole Porter material. Lou also has a Concord Jazz album under his own name dating from the early 90s, and he's appeared on a few other albums over the last decade, but considering the quality of his playing and his age (I think he's in his early 70s) his discography is extremely thin. Anyone know why? Quote
Trumpet Guy Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 I don't know, but I believe he's lived in the Cape Cod region of Boston for years. Not exactly a hot-bed of recording there... Quote
