Joe Posted July 5, 2011 Report Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) As an outgrowth of the discussion swirling (verily!) around BFT 87, I offer this link to quite fine website delving into the life and recording career of Texas tenor Tom Archia. The Tom Archia Discography (by Robert L. Campbell, Leonard J. Bukowski, and Armin Büttner) Edited July 5, 2011 by Joe Quote

brownie Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 The Tom Archia CD from the Classics Blues & Rhythm Series is highly recommended. Better get it while copies are still available. This wont last long now that the label has gone under. Quote

Niko Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 stupid question on the Archia article, in the text on this picture: the article claims that Archia second saxophone player from left is holding an alto instead of his usual tenor; i'd have seen it as a tenor, anyone agree/disagree? Quote

This wont last long now that the label has gone under. Mega-seconded. Ultra-thirded. @Niko: Agreed. It DOES look like a tenor. Quote
JSngry Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 Without my glasses, it looks like a tenor, with that curved neck and all. Quote
