Bright Moments Posted May 1, 2007 Report 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
JSngry Posted May 1, 2007 Report 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

kh1958 Posted May 1, 2007 Report 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
JohnS Posted May 1, 2007 Report 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. Quote
robviti Posted May 1, 2007 Report Posted May 1, 2007 aside from the columbia discs, this is one of my favorite blythe recordings that includes bob stewart: Quote
John L Posted May 1, 2007 Report 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
