Hawk AKA Bean ( Slang at the time for smart or brainy) was according to Pres The First President. Bean took the Tenor Sax from being a support axe to being a lead or Solo Instrument. Pres was fired by a Band Leader perhaps Earl Hines, for sounding too much like Hawk. It was the Woodsheding after that experience that brought him into his cool laid back style! Basie called him a Stylist which according to Basie translates to Something Else"! ;-)
