SAHIB SHIHAB - VINYL AND ALL THOSE CATS [VINYL]

Popis - AND ALL THOSE CATS [VINYL]:
Sahib Shihab was, in many ways, the Thelonious Monk of the baritone saxophone. Like Monk, he was an uncompromising individualist with an idiosyncratic, often quirky, approach to improvisation. And, in fact, Shihab and Monk had a strong mutual affinity. They worked together in the late forties and early fifties and became good friends. Shihab admired Monk for his oblique approach to jazz and his resolute non-conformity and he shared much of Monk's musical philosphy. Recorded between 1964 and 1970.
