….but, there’s always 😊:
Btw, if the “Hawk in Hifi” is the one that your friend refers to, I don’t agree that it is not very good. Billy Byers was one of the great orchestrators of the time. That alone makes it an interesting record. Enjoy.
Coleman Hawkins
I have several albums from tenor saxophonists Ben Webster, Stan Getz, etc., accompanied by string orchestra. I want to know if Coleman Hawkins did any work accompanied by a string orchestra or not. I did a search, but didn't see any such albums. So I am not sure if he ever played accompanied by strings. Appreciate your replies.
