A close friend and major influence to them both, Robert’s playing embodied warmth, swing, and a profound respect for the masters of the tenor saxophone lineage. In this special tribute, Danderfer and Weeds explore selections associated with Robert, honoring his spirit and musical legacy. They are joined by a stellar rhythm section featuring Tilden Webb on piano, Conrad Good on bass, and Jesse Cahill on drums, bringing Robert’s music to life with energy, heart, and swing.
