Buddy Tate: The Texas Tenor

by Chris Mosey
When Herschel Evans died in 1939, Buddy Tate took his place in the Count Basie band. Basie used Tate's muscular, blues- based tenor as a foil to the lighter toned playing of Lester Young.

Buddy Tate From Texas State

by Nic Jones
By the end of the 1930s both the Count Basie and Duke Ellington bands had established signature styles of music making that were in some respects antithetical.
