Another excellent overview (thanks for the "shout-out"). Can't wait for you to get the 1970s (Rudy Royston, Eric Harland, Nasheet Waits, etc).

Thanks for reminding us how blessed we are to have all these incredible musicians still living, gigging and recording, despite all the great names leaving us in recent months.

Listening this afternoon to Michael Marcus's album The Magic Door suggests two further names to add to what's already a comprehensive list: Newman Taylor Baker and Jay Rosen.
