Just discovered this great gem from a 1970 TV broadcast from WTTW - Chicago PBS. This is the only known TV appearance of one of my favorite saxophonists Gene "Jug" Ammons. This broadcast was produced by National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master Dan Morgenstern, and was discovered among over 60 boxes of Morgenstern’s memorabilia at the Institute of Jazz Studies at Rutgers University. My uncle George Freeman is on guitar with King Kolax on trumpet, Wallace Burton on piano, Chester Williamson on

Check out records like 'Boss Tenor' and you'll be hooked. Born in Chicago on April 14, 1925 – August 6, 1974) Ammons, was also know
