Bob Wilber and Glenn Zottola "China Boy" at Smithsonian.

I spent several years with great soprano player Bob Wilber. We formed the Bechet Legacy band and did many albums and toured the world. We recorded this concert at the Smithsonian in DC. Bob was a great foil for me. I put China Boy on my anthology "Life In Jazz".
Available at iTunes , Amazon , CD Baby , Barnes and Noble and innnercityjazz.com. More info glennzottola.com.

The first time I saw Bob and Glenn play this live was a revelation.Bob was a master musician but his Soprano playing was something else.No one could have partnered Bob to greater effect than my old friend Glenn.
Here is the proof...
You will be sorely missed by all lovers of Classic Jazz and Swing Bob.
RIP

Bob Wilbur, a rare classic jazz performer , a fine gentleman and last of a wonderful bygone era.

I agree Tomothy :)

Don't forget vintage Chris Flory on guitar, must be Phil Flanagan on bass.

Great players!

On sent chez Bob Wilber l'influence qu'a eu Bechet !! Comme chez Claude Luter dans les années 60 .

@@glennzottola Years ago you came to Trenton State College to play with Tony DeNicola. I was blown away by your technique and musicianship on trumpet and sax back then. A pleasure to hear you again!

[@glennzottola]

@@lwendt1 I remember that Lars a great time is Tony still around great guy and player.
