Jazz is an album by saxophonist John Handy III featuring tracks recorded in 1962 and originally released on the Roulette label. AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars and its review by Scott Yanow states, "Handy's appealing and already distinctive alto sound, combined with an exploratory style, resulted in this music having plenty of surprising moments" - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZ61NOkeVGM&list=RDBZ61NOkeVGM&start_radio=1 #JohnHandy #Jazz #Bop #HardBop #Jazz #WalterBishop #Music

Return Visit! (issued as Tubby's Back In Town by Smash in the US) is an album by British jazz saxophonist Tubby Hayes, recorded in June 1962 and released on Fontana Records in 1963. Produced by Quincy Jones[2] and featuring the "All Stars" of Roland Kirk, James Moody, Walter Bishop, Jr., Sam Jones, and Louis Hayes, the session is notable for being Hayes's second to be recorded in the United States, following Tubbs in N.Y. in 1962. The line-up unusually includes three tenor saxophonists, all of whom double on other instruments. Hayes wrote in the sleeve notes to the UK release that, "My feelings were somewhat mixed, possibly apprehensive. I was about to record with great American jazz men who knew nothing about the date until the day before and whom, apart from the piano player, I had never met."- Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCGiCDg-61Q&list=RDLCGiCDg-61Q&start_radio=1 #TubbyHayes #RolandKirk #Jazz #Music #JamesMoody #SamJones #WalterBishop #LouisHayes
