  2. Geoff Taylor Sextet

    Wow, this is really Bostic-like, even down to the echo sound! I like it!

    According to the Lord discography Taylor's recording career did not last beyond 1956. I would however not mind hearing more of Taylor's Esquire sessions from the mid-50s.

    Many thanks for this one!

  3. I very much enjoy the echo and atmosphere of this recording, the sax is really floating while retaining a sharp edge.
