What a magnificent trumpeter. First time I heard Woody live was the stint his group did with Dexter Gordon in 77. The show was at a hall in Yale University. Got to meet both of them after the show. Talk about 2 heavyweights. I only got to him live once more, also in New Haven. Dexter was supposed to play but had some travel issues getting there.
I loved the recordings with Freddie Hubbard as well. My 2 favorite trumpeters from that era. |

I saw Woody Shaw live back in the late 70's/early 80's at the old Jazz Gallery in Milwaukee (during the era when Chuck LaPaglia owned and managed it).
He played wonderfully. I noticed that he was quoting pieces of other familiar jazz trumpet solos, stitching them into his performance. During a break, I asked one of his sidemen what kind of trumpet he was playing, and I was told that it was a Meazzi (a Conn Connstellation copy, but using regular brass, possibly gold-plated). _________________ "He that plays the King shall be welcome . . .
