The Latinization of Bunky Green
A great jazz record with the killer cut “Do It Like You Feel It”.
Cadet Records. 1972 / Cover photo and design: Esmond Edwards
Featuring vocals by The Dells.
Bunky plays both Alto and the electronic Veritone sax.
In a 1997 DownBeat article, saxophone great Joe Lovano said, “Bunky personifies what jazz is all about. He’s combined all the inspiration of Parker and Dolphy and fused it into an individual voice. He’s the kind of player I’ve always strived to be in my music, taking hold of history and then moving on, through self-expression. Working alongside him has been a real highlight.”
Today Bunky is a Professor and Director of Jazz Studies at the University of Northern Florida in Jacksonville.
