The brilliant Bob Malach with Ben Sidran

King of Cool, Doctor Jazz, Ben Sidran with sax player Bob Malach, who judging by notes he plays and the fresh ideas and scales he comes up with when he solos, should have been a household name by now. From Bob Malach's generation, Michael Brecker is the only sax player who is on that same level of genius. Just Listen to Bob improvising and see how unpredictable he is and how, unlike most players, his solos are not merely a collection of familiar cliches. Bob Malach has performed and recorded with dozens of great jazz artists that include Mike Stern, Michel Petrucciani, Robben Ford to name only a few.



For a great live concert with Bob Malach on sax check out this 2010 concert with the CTI Allstars at a great blog called Bogard's Jazztapes
