Sam Dillon; My Ideal

If you're into big toned, full throttle tenor sax players, I think Sam Dillon may well be your man. He holds nothing back on a collection split between Dillon's high flying original compositions and familiar fare like “Have You Met Miss Jones”, “I Love You”, “Softly As In A Morning Sunrise”, and the title tune, “My Ideal”. Dillon's quartet includes David Hazeltine, piano; Alexander Claffy, bass; and Rodney Green, drums. They are all pin point perfect in support of the leader. If the phrase “no holds barred” describes your preference among tenor sax players, you need to get acquainted with Sam Dillon.
