"Shadow of Your Smile " has always been one of my favorites and The Tubby Hayes Quartet did not disappoint. Big props to Tubby Hayes for staying in the smooth lane and maintaining much coolness.

I never caught Tubby's act but apparently he lead the first British Invasion and Irishmen did not flock to either. None the less quite an accomplished performer as I had to pull of the inet to determine: Tubby (Edward Brian) Hayes was one of Britain's finest tenor sax players, Jazz musicians and composers. He co-led the successful Jazz Couriers with Ronnie Scott from 1957 to 1959. He led several distinguished quartets and was the first British contemporary to appear at regular intervals in the USA. One of his most distinguished quartets came in the late 1950's, a group which included Terry Shannon, Jeff Clyne, Phil Seaman or Bill Eyden. Another in the 1960's included Ron Mathewson, Tony Levin and Mike Pyne. Hayes who was arguably the most prodigiously talented jazz multi-instrumentalist the British Isles has ever produced. He played vibes, flute, soprano, alto and baritone sax, piano, clarinet, bass clarinet and tympani, but was best known for his coruscating tenor saxophone work. He was also a talented composer and arranger. WOW hats off to Tubby!
