Hello Bob,
One musician who worked with him is Bob Hunt. Somewhere on youtube is a Brian Ferry recording with a kind of Ellington sound. Hunt, being a UK plunger mute trombone specialist was hired for the task to do the Tricky Sam Nanton sound.
Bob Hunt since 2000 plays in the big Chris Barber band.
I play with Bob tomorrow, so I will ask if he remembers who were the others.
Kind regards,
Bert Brandsma
