Pepper Adams

The modern master, my favourite and arguably the most influential baritone player in the history of jazz

Gary Smulyan

One of today's most versatile, swinging baritone players, to coin a Philly Joe Jones description: 'a smoker of the pipe'

Ronnie Cuber

A legend from his early association with George Benson up to the present day, as far as I can make out, he doesn't have a personal website but this one is full of useful information with a pretty comprehensive discography

Harry Carney

The original master, the man who invented jazz baritone, there isn't much available under his own name but I have a rare album called 'Rock Me Gently' burnt onto CD with all the pops and crackles, but it's one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard, and it also heavily features PaulGonsalves, if you genuinely want a copy of this very hard to find masterpiece then email me.
