And all we have left is...nothing.
I wouldn't go that far...not if Diana Krall is working among us...and Horace Silver and Sonny Rollins are still alive and well...

B.B. and Horace slipped my mind, of course. Sonny's style was a little too abrasive for my taste. My favorite tenor player was The Hawk.

Benny Carter is still with us at 95 years old! (8/8/02)
Oscar Peterson and Ahmad Jamal are still going strong and you couldn't ask for two better piano players. Peterson is as nice as he is talented. I advise anyone to see these musicians if they get the chance.
