	Bob Haggart Page in Fuller Up, The Dead Musicians Directory
		His first significant work in jazz was as a bassist with the Bob Crosby band, to which he added not just his bass work but arrangements that often proved to be classics, including "What's New," "South Rampart Street Parade" and "The Big Noise from Winnetka," a duet for bass and drums.
		In the '90s Haggart recorded regularly with the clarinetist Kenny Davern and the saxophonist Bob Wilber, along with the pianist Jane Jarvis and the saxophonist Rick Fay.
		This new outfit, under the nominal leader-ship of Bob Crosby, became one of the great successes of the swing era, combining as it did the currently popular dance band music with an exhilarating two-beat Dixieland style.

	Bob Haggart: 1914-1998 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The death of Bob Haggart has ended the long and highly distinguished jazz career of the man who will always be associated with the celebrated bass and drums duet he concocted with Ray Bauduc for the Bob Crosby band, "The Big Noise from Winnetka".
		He began lessons on guitar as a teenager, and also dabbled in piano and trumpet before switching to double bass at 17, an instrument on which he was self-taught.
		The band allowed him to develop his reputation not only as a bass player, but also as an arranger and composer, and if "The Big Noise from Winnetka" is the most feted of his creations, his clever arrangements were central to the band's sophisticated Dixieland-based sound.

	Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Yearnings - Bobby Gordon/Bob Wilber at Epinions.com
		Five highly accomplished US musicians have produced this musical result, Bob Wilber, the energetic and needle- sharp clarinettist, saxophonist, composer and arranger (now, incredibly, in his seventies) and the sage clarinettist Bobby Gordon, from a generation later and still not well enough known.
		As any wind-player will attest, it would all sound desperately thin without a foundation of rhythm, chords and counterpoint, and this is provided by John Sheridan on piano, Tony De Nicola on drums and David Stone on bass.
		For me the most memorable track is 'Sunday', a wonderful tune of the Bix era, introduced with a marvellous piano lick by Sheridan, whose subsequent understated and tasteful solo is followed by Gordon with a dark chocolate meditation that demands constant replaying for its sheer delicacy and soulful content.

		Of the 16 songs, 11 are his originals, and in general, despite the fresh repertoire, the music is in the style of Benny Goodman's Orchestra with touches of Ellington and Basie.
		Wilber is generally the main soloist, and although there are short spots for many of the notable players (which include trumpeter Jon-Erik Kellso and pianist Dick Hyman), the emphasis is mostly on the written ensembles and often moody melodies.
		None of Wilber's originals are destined to become standards, but taken as a whole, they are quite enjoyable.

	Bob Wilber and the Tuxedo Big Band \| Fletcher Henderson's Unrecorded Arrangements for Benny Goodman (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Tuxedo, formed in 1990 by clarinetist Paul Chéron and named in honor of the Tuxedo Club in turn—of—the—century Manhattan, is devoted to music of the Swing Era.
		Even more important, Wilber and Chéron have become friends and Wilber has performed with the band on a number of occasions.
		Wilber, who says Goodman was his “first inspiration to play clarinet,” is a masterful replacement for the King, flexing his impressive chops on most numbers and building to a toe-tapping finish on “Bojangles” (which also features inspired drumming by Jean-Luc Guiraud).
