Hey there all you young horn players. My name is Coleman "Hawk" Hawkins, but most people know me as the "Father of the Tenor Saxophone." I have played with many talented musicians and recorded many albums in my time. But I am most famous for my 1939 recording of "Body and Soul." In 1923, I joined the Fletcher Henderson Band, and was influenced by the playing style of Louis Armstrong. In 1933, I toured the continent of Europe for five years with the Jack Hylton Orchestra.
