I saw him once, forever ago, at a club in Hermosa Beach, CA. Whew.

Bebop, the roller coaster version of jazz.

Was that The Lighthouse? A legendary jazz club that I had a number of jazz albums
from, but by the time I finally hitchiked to the coast to go there (circa 1972) it had,
most unfortunately, become a rock and roll place.
I saw Freddie a number of times in the early 70s in Chicago at small clubs. A tremendous
talent, but seemed to lack the character of a great such as Miles Davis, and hence his
career was rather brief and disjointed. But in sheer playing ability, he was awesome.

I don’t know much about the musicology of Jazz but I’ve always liked Freddy Hubbard

Was that The Lighthouse? Yes.
Apparently it is still open, as The Lighthouse Cafe: http://www.thelighthousecafe.net/index.html
I wish I could remember the name of Freddie Hubbard's piano player that night. He was fantastic.

Freddy Hubbard and Woody Shaw are probably my two favourite trumpet players.

Possibly Kenny Baron, Roland Hanna, or Herbie Hancock - all fantastic.

Woody Shaw is top drawer. I saw him at the Lion’s Share in San Anselmo in 1973.

Thanks.
