Hello, I'm in Brisbane Australia and have just heard a track of Henry Butler with Alvin Batiste on an Impulse! compilation.
I've had a bit of a look around the internet and info on Alvin is pretty elusive.
More importantly, does anyone know where I can get some of his recordings and what would you recommend?
REALLY enjoyed his playing.
thanks for your help
Seamus

Entering the name Alvin Batiste into any search engine will bring up a number of biographies, including the one from Rico reeds, where he is a sponsored artist:

He has a number of recordings on both Sony and SLM records.
Those of us at the 2001 Clarinetfest in New Orleans were privileged to hear him perform...GBK
