Tubby Hayes meets Sal Nistico

Steve Owen drew this vintage piece by Les Tompkins to my attention. Tompkins, brings the late and legendary tenormen Sal Nistico and Tubby Hayes together to talk about jazz and saxophones and music in general. It is fascinating stuff and reminds us of the great loss the jazz world suffered when these two died so young.
The article first appeared as part of Crescendo Magazine's Anglo-American Exchange series.back in the 1960's.
