Buddy Emmons’ Favorite Players

Post by Bill Cunningham »

I was trying to remember an old thread where Buddy listed his favorite players. With several minutes research I found it in the Bar Chatter archives. Thought some of you might like to blow the dust off of it. Interesting.

Granted, it’s hard for anyone to make a list like this. And we probably really shouldn’t try. So many great and unique player.

I remember when Buddy posted this.
yes it's very tough to list just 10 players, I love that he listed 10 non-pedal players as well. I also love that Jimmy Day made both lists. as did Walter Haynes!

That's very interesting, and a great augmentation to the recent biography. Thank you for posting it once again.
