underrated players.
With so much emphasis being on image, a lot of players have gone underrated throughout music's history. I would like to hear all of your input on some of the most underrated jazz saxophone players, I will list a few of mine.
Gigi Gryce- I think the way Gigi was playing with clifford was excellent, and progressive too. Almost nobody listens to him
Dick Oatts- While Dick does get a lot of recognition for being a great lead alto player, I rarely hear his praises sung in conversations about the best current players. And he can play anything.
These are just two that come to my head right now, there are many other unsung heroes, especially currently in New York.
feel free to leave comments on overrated players as well.
