... and still being played by today's young musicians:

 

Thanks for sharing it with us. Yeah, that´s it and wonderful players. Everbody plays great on this, the tenorists each has his own style. 

I have not heard that tune until summer this year, when a British tenorsaxophonist (Sam Knight) played a two tenor gig here in Viena with Austrian tenorist Ray Aichinger . They played "Hey Lock" in the first set and I liked it very much. 
In the second set I was invited  to sit in and then it was even a 3 tenors thing, since the third tenorist was no one less than the great European tenor player Roman Schwaller. 

Ocasions like that one, especially that special night  brought me "back" after years of silence and I´m grateful for that, and never will say else than that I thank those men so much.

I only know him from a couple of Don Cherry records, but he definitely got my attention.

 Putney Dandridge "1935-1936" Chronogical Classics cd

More fun music from this former accompanist of "Mr. Bojangles" who was heavily influenced by Fats Waller as a singer. The broad Bechet-esque vibrato is less pronounced here than on the later recordings.

Gerry Mulligan Meets Ben Webster (Verve)
with Jimmy Rowles, Leroy Vinnegar, and Mel Lewis

A felicitous pairing.  Both men sound inspired.  "Chelsea Bridge," the opening cut, always knocks me down.
