Charlie Shavers - The Man I love

When talking about Charlie Shavers it's easy to run out of adjectives. Certainly one of the best trumpet players who ever lived. He can take a brassy instrument associated with waking soldiers up at 6AM and make it almost talk. The way he bends notes is so sexy it's like making love to a woman. At other times his blazing finger work and power will have you holding your breath.

Smooth as silk. Especially the piano player.
