KD does not come up on my radar very often. I'll try to do better from
now on.

My guess would be mid 80s to early 90's era. Well after 1958.

Yes indeed. I believe Kenny Drew Jr. Passed away a year or two ago. Very nice player.

One of my all-time favorites. If he were american recording for Blue Note he would be a household name. I have a ton of Tubby records.

Without an English friend hipping me to Tubby I might never have known about him. Great player. nt, posted on March 2, 2015 at 08:24:35

I bought Dizzy Reece's Blues in Trinity years ago. I played that record and wondered who in the hell was the tenor player. Tubby is great and that is a great LP.
