I was never overly impressed by Tram's playing until I heard him on the CD
"The Three T's" (Jazz Oracle BDW8056) which was recorded on location in
December 1936, in the company of the Teagarden brothers and with a swing
rhythm section.
Incidentally, Lester Young was not only influenced by Tram's sound but also
by the way he "told a little story" and he "liked the way he slurred his
notes."
