Chris Potter "Solar"

"Chris is always fully entertaining," says Cohen. "He's one of the only players who, from passage to passage or from phrase to phrase, never seems to repeat himself. He's just always full of delight and surprise. I think he's one of the best tenor players under the age of 40 out there right now."

very strange qualifier indeed. the 82 and 42 year olds needn't worry, He's not "there" yet.
But the 38 year olds, yeah he's up there with all of them.
