Eddie & Bernard (who?)

We all know who Eddie is, but check out this duet with Bernard playing BGs hit, Avalon. WOW http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Ezc1mQU3UB8&feature=related

Just like my friend Chuck Hedges once told me, just when you think you are getting good, some "unknown comes along and blows you off the stand."

William,

Re: "....just when you think you are getting good, some "unknown comes along and blows you off the stand."" - IMO the number of those who can blow Mr. Hedges off the stand is very, very small.

Regards,
Hans

Why does Eddie always play the same runs most every time.... ?

Hans, I agree. About 15 years ago, I heard Chuck completely steal the spotlight from Buddy DeFranco at the Bunny Berigan Jazz Festival in Fox Lake, WI. Chuck was the opening act and when Buddy took the stage, it was "no contest"--not even close.

BTW, here's an interesting listing of who made how many recordings over the years: http://www.lordisco.com/musicians/index.html#H

This guy didn't just fall off the turnip truck. He was apparently a pretty well respected recording artist in the Netherlands in the 1980s, but he took a break from playing clarinet to practice medicine. I found this with Google:
