![Jimmy McGary: The Best Jazz You Never Heard](https://i3.wp.com/image.tmdb.org/t/p/w185/ecfRi7y6hRUQYrjui6XdYzA8k3M.jpg)
Plot
Tenor saxophonist Jimmy McGary was a major presence in the Cincinnati music scene from the 1950s until his death in the early ’90s. With music rooted in Bebop with a progressive slant, the Jazz legend was a session player for King Records and released his first album as a bandleader — The First Time (with a quartet that included pianist Pat Kelly) — in 1979. McGary’s spirit and legacy have lived on well after his passing and well beyond Cincinnati, as evidenced in this new documentary film.
