Trumpet Guy Posted December 23, 2011 Report Posted December 23, 2011 On Dexter Gordon's Chronological Classics 1947-52', who plays Trumpet on the live cut 'Steeplechase"? It could be Fats, but my fantasy is that this is the best recording of Little Benny Harris Who is it? Thank you! Quote
BeBop Posted December 23, 2011 Report Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) Gotta be Conte Candoli from the Chase/Steeplechase concert, February 1952. ("Just Jazz") Edited December 23, 2011 by BeBop Quote

BeBop Posted December 23, 2011 Report Posted December 23, 2011 Actually, I think he plays Thursdays or Fridays at Smalls (NYC) with TimMcCall in a quintet. Quote
