Ron Dewar in Chicago  is no longer that young but he came out of the
University rather a Coltrane clone but he has his own twist and he is also
very much into classic traditional stuff.  He can play some of the most
interesting and swinging tenor that I"ve every heard and turn around and
play wonderful tradtional mode clarinet, and he sounds only like himself.
Eric Schneider is another one.


   Boy, you've got that right!  I heard Eric in Lauderdale 20 years ago get
into a cutting contest with Stan Getz and hold his own with no problems!
(Ira Sullivan was just looking on and grinning.)

   But Ron Dewar (pronounced, de WAR), another modern player, can turn and
play trad as well as anyone I've heard.  Main reason: sheer talent; but
other reason: he loves it!  A very quiet together man, he looks and behaves
much like Chuck Kircher thirty years ago, same hair, same demeanor.   Sounds
a lot like Chuck, too.
