5.0 out of 5 stars The only chronicle of a master sax player!, October 18, 1999

This review is from: Texas Tenor: Illinois Jacquet Story [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This award winning film is the only real chronicle of Illinois Jacquet - one of the original Texas Tenors. All but forgotten by mainstream jazz lovers, he is responsible for one of the most famous jazz cuts of all - Flying Home. Great music, beautifully filmed and edited. If you love big band jazz, this is a must have!
