Saxophone Style
August 6, 2009
Saxophonists have the best style! Not that I’m biased or anything…
Dexter Gordon
Lester Young in his signature Porkpie hat
Stan Getz - Looks cool even though his bowtie is a clip on.
John Coltrane - Anyone that can smoke and play like that gets my approval.
Bud Shank on Bari - Here with Chet Baker
Charlie "The Bird" Parker in a great flecked blazer and a sweet Conn Alto. Check out the underslung octave key!
Paul Desmond
Coleman Hawkins
Johnny Griffin
James Moody
Boots Randolph in an awesome skinny tie and button down collar.
Johnny Hodges
Lucky Thompson
Sonny Rollins
Barney Wilen
Surfing in the 60’s
