He opened for us last year in Clearwater, and he was friggin awesome. Then we ate a bunch of skewers of shrimp and steak, and split some stone crab claws while we watched Ramsey Lewis's trio destroy us all.

No love for Thelonius Monk?

Others:

Pretty Purdie
Groove Holmes
Boogalo Joe Jones

Feel like I should know more.

Mongo Santamaria is pretty great by the way (talking the musician, not just the name)
