John Klemmer

Have you heard of the Jazz musician: John Klemmer?
I came across his 1979 LP: The best of John Klemmer "Mosaic", a few days ago at a used record store, and I bought it for $4.00. This recording is a great one, a truly beautiful recording. I had never heard of him before. I went to Amozan.com and found a few more LP's and I had to get some more of his stuff. I think he sounds very similar to "Boney James" or vise versa.
Tell us what you think....

Grover Washington Jr. is also a great choice if you enjoy John Klemmer's music. Another reco would be Sadao Watanabe, check out my personal favorite 'Fill Up The Night'.

Cheers,
John

Raul,
I grew up in East L.A. Perhaps the best musician friend I/we had died on prom night when he stopped to help a stranded motorist on an L.A. freeway. Broke lots of hearts that night.

Rene Cortez is the Klemmer connection.
Joe Garcia took lessons with Joe Pass.

Other childhood friends are Los Lobos.
My girlfriend's dad lived next door to Freddy Hubbard.
