If I only would have noticed the name of that guy from the states, whom I heard once. 

I led a jam session at Zwe in Viena and a very very heavy guy came down into the club, having an alto with him. He was so heavy that Mingus or Fats Navarro would have been lightweight compared to him.
I saw him with the alto and from the piano I waved him on stage and believe it or not.......: It was like if Jackie McLean would have been again among us. THAT ALTO SOUND, it was like if it was him, well there was also a bit of Dolphy and sure a lot of that unknown guy himself in it, but it was INCREDIBLE how great it was. I talked a litte to him later, but he was only "a tourist" as he stated and I never saw him again...... I would have liked to play with him very very very much.

I wonder if you're talking about the late Andy Fusco? He was a big guy who could really play.

There was another Verve album with Bud playing solo, and another trio record with strangly Buddy Rich on drums but again you don´t hear him much. 

.......................

 

Thanks for your comments.

Here is another one from Verve (original on Norgran label)  which I played recently. Again he has selected nice melodies.

-Trio one with Max Roach

- Trio 2 with Art Blaley

Verve UMV 2571 [Japan 1981] - rec. 1954 & 1955(?)

Horace Parlan + George Tucker + Al Harewood = solid gold ....

[gmonahan]

Steven Lasker did the remastering on this one, and it shows. Sound is better than some others in the series.

Did Ambrose Jackson leave behind any kind of biographical trail?

[JSngry]

Discogs says that he played with Otis Redding.

And so does that obit.
