Re: [Harp-L] What are some good Toots albums??? What about chroms for jazz?

[Pierre <plavio@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I like the Toots with Kenny Werner. Kenny is an awesome jazz piano player 
who comps very well. The CD is quite relaxed, mostly standards.

There is also the Chez Toots CD which is also excelent. Also relaxed, mostly 
french standards.

For more bop oriented, there is the Toots DVD, he lets loose on that.

Pierre.
