So as I'm sitting here working away in my lil' corporate cubicle, I decided to pass the time with some classic Miles Davis. And today I decided to pop in one of my favorites, "Birth of the Cool". All is can say is WOW! Bill (John?) Barber is absolutely fantastic on this album.

Does anyone know much about Mr. Barber and his history as a freelance jazz tubist? What horn(s) did he play? Is he still playing? And what other albums did he work with Miles on (Porgy and Bess?)???!!!

Man, what a great player......

Ok, back to corporate America.....
