While he may not be strictly OKOM, Bud Shank is a "legendary" jazz reed man
and an outspoken champion of the music. If you are  in the Philadelphia
/Wilmington/ Washington/ Baltimore area, you might want to fall by.

Alto sax legend Bud Shank celebrates his 80th birthday w/ Philly's own John
Swana. Shank started out with Stan Kenton and Charlie Barnet and produced
over 50 albums during his long career.

Check his website - http://www.budshankalto.com/ Besides the information
about him, it has a neat photo of this 80 year old YOUNG man.

Cheers,
Steve
