Biography

One of the original members of Supersax, Jay Migliori has long been a top bop-oriented saxophonist based in Los Angeles. He actually started out working frequently in the Boston area in the mid-'50s. Migliori was with Woody Herman's Orchestra from 1957-58 before setting in L.A. Since the early 1960s he has worked frequently in the studios, gigging at night in clubs. He was with Supersax from 1972-84 and has often led his own combos. Migliori led bop-oriented albums for Transition (1955), PRB Int. (1975) and Discovery (1980-81). ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
