In Reply to: But Clifford Brown DIDN'T live... posted by musetap on January 2, 2017 at 12:22:42:
I am a fan of jazz trumpet and trumpeters, and Brownie is the best I
have heard. Better than Louis, Roy, Clark, Miles (by a long ways),
Dizzy, Ruby, Hackett, Bix, Hargrove, and Wynton. And others. He's
not as good, in terms of sheer technical virtuosity, as some of the good
classical trumpeters, but he's close.
