Bud Shank & Bob Cooper: Mosaic Select 10: Bud Shank & Bob Cooper

Read "Mosaic Select 10: Bud Shank & Bob Cooper" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


One is no longer with us and the other still serves as a vital bop-inflected saxophonist, but for a short period of time in the late '50s, Bob Cooper and Bud Shank joined forces with producer Richard Bock on a series of fine Pacific Jazz sessions that, while not widely known even at the time, will ...

A Fireside Chat With Bud Shank

Read "A Fireside Chat With Bud Shank" reviewed by AAJ Staff

Read "The Complete Pacific Jazz Bud Shank Studio Sessions" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan
