An excellent reed player who is underrated,
Bobby Militello brings back the spirit of
Paul Desmond when he performs with the Dave Brubeck Quartet. After playing locally in Buffalo, he toured with
Maynard Ferguson (1975-1979).
Militello freelanced in Buffalo (1981-1984) and Los Angeles (1984-1992), playing with the
Bill Holman and
Bob Florence Orchestras.
Bobby Militello, who has recorded with
Holman,
Florence,
Ferguson, and
Charlie Shoemake, among others, has played on and off with
Brubeck since 1983 (usually alternating with Bill Smith) and has led several of his own albums for Positive. ~ Scott Yanow
