#777Аммонс Джин
Gene ‘Jug’ Ammons
14.05.1925, Чикаго —
06.08.1974, ЧикагоСаксофонист, сын пианиста Альберта Аммонса. Один из темпераментных исполнителей ритм-энд-блюза, хард-бопа и блюза.
Стал известен, работая в 1944–47 в оркестре Билли Экстайна. В 1949 заменил Стэна Гетца в биг-бэнде Вуди Германа. В 1950 организовал ансамбль, в котором постоянно устраивал "бои" двух тенор-саксофонистов (партнером был Сонни Стит), о чем свидетельствуют альбомы Boss Tenor и Soul Summit. После распада ансамбля в 1952 работал в чикагских клубах, выезжая в Нью-Йорк только на записи. В 1958 начались неприятности — у него обнаружили наркотики, последовал арест. После скорого освобождения вновь начал играть с Сонни Ститом, но недолго. В 1962 году при втором задержании с партией наркотиков угодил на семь лет в тюрьму, где ему через некоторое время разрешили создать джазовый ансамбль. Это помогло ему выйти из заключения в хорошей форме и сразу же записать несколько успешных альбомов.Фейертаг В.Б. Джаз. XX век. Энциклопедический справочник. - Издательство "СКИФИЯ", 2001
