British Saxophonists To Investigate

The list author says:
	"Andy Sheppard seems to play in just about any field of jazz these days but his early albums - the first self-titled , this one and Soft on the Inside - are among his best work."

The list author says:
	"Genre-hopping seems to have been a big thing in Britain - Courtney Pine blends jazz and hip-hop and comes out a winner."

The list author says:
	"Paul Dunmall is one of Britain's greatest saxophonists.  Here he is featured in a quartet with Keith Tippett on piano.  Highly recommended."

The list author says:
	"Tubby Hayes was a great player.  Mexican Green is a good place to start but the reissues of his work on Fontana are pure gems."

The list author says:
	"Not only Don Rendell on tenor but Graham Bond in his early jazz days playing alto."

The list author says:
	"Buy this album and its companion 'Abstract'.  They mark the beginnings of British Free Jazz"

The list author says:
	"John Butcher is taking the saxophone into territory that many fear to tread.  Where Evan Parker began the exploration of the instrument's possibilities, Butcher seems to be going one step further."

The list author says:
	"Evan Parker is the British master saxophonist.  His work in ensembles is great but his solo work is extraordinary."

The list author says:
	"The exceptionally gifted and truly brilliant alto player Mike Osborne had a sound unlike anyone on the British scene."

The list author says:
	"SW's first album as a leader. Very much in that late '80s Brit-Jazz style."

The list author says:
	"ED playing alto and saxello - a true prince among saxophonists. Out, but not as out as Parker/Butcher."
