Brian Nalepka (Manhattan Rhythm Kings) is a great player too.
So is Don Little, a NJ transplant down in Texas, and Mark Heter &  
Norm Burbank in NJ, and Bob Bauchens in Chicago (Lyric Opera), and  
Neil Tidwell formerly of the NOLA Symphony, and Gil Corella (sp?) in  
Balto. etc. etc.
There are many many great tuba players doing jazz, but they are  
"unsung" for the most part.
That's my 2¢.
Cheers,
John
