I got to play a few gigs in SF and Oakland with Joe's
SF Big Band.
He was in his later years, his sound had mellowed, and he would pull ideas right out of the air!
Always surprising me with where he went in his solos.
He had his own Vintage Mic, and his tone was tailored for Mic/Pa systems in Jazz Clubs.
Others sounded very aggressive over the PA System, Joe sounded GREAT!
I gather he had recovered his Stolen MK VI Tenor, from years before.
He was very happy about that!
