As much action as the Death Pools get, and without trying to muscle in on that territory as such, I’m curious which old and still active entertainers you will really miss when they leave us.
Some of my favorites who continue to provide great music are:
Jean “Toots” Thielemans perhaps the greatest harmonica player in the jazz field. Also guitar and whistling.
Marian McPartland. Piano
Dave Brubeck. Piano
George Shearing. Piano
Horace Silver. Piano
Dozens more, but I’ll leave room for yours.
