Bright Moments Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 This one is RECOMMENDED!!! Blythe and Hicks are in top form and Bob Stewart on tuba (who would have thunk it - tuba instead of bass!) Cecil Brooks III on drums. YEAH BABY!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 ...and Bob Stewart on tuba (who would have thunk it - tuba instead of bass!) Are you familiar with much of Blythe's work? Him & Stewart go back quite a way, and there've been some good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kh1958 Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Bob Stewart is on tuba on most of Arthur Blythe's recordings on Columbia--including Lenox Avenue Breakdown, Elaborations, Illusions, and Blythe Spirit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFrank Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Both "Focus" (w/Stewart) and "Blythe Byte" (w/o Stewart, w/bass) are available on eMusic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Bob Stewart is awesome. When he was with Brass Fantasy you just had to admie him and wonder where he got the energy from. But with Blythe, I've never found him completely satisfying. His best for me is Lenox Avenue Breakdown. A great recording by any standards.

John L Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Try and get ahold of this one: Easier said than done. I have been grabbing every Arthur Blythe recording that I can get my hands on for a decade, and I have never come across that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
