BIO by Scott Yanow ( www.scottyanow.com )
...Sal Nistico's explosive tenor solos with Woody Herman in the mid-'60s helped make that edition of Herman's Herd into a success. Originally an altoist, Nistico switched to tenor in 1956 and played with RB bands for 3 years. He gigged with and made his recording debut in 1959-1960 with the Jazz Brothers, a band also including Chuck & Gap Mangione. But it was while with Herman in 1962-1965 that Nistico made history. In 1965, he spent 5mos. with Count Basie. He returned to Basie in 1967 and to Herman on several occasions (1968-1970, 1971, 1981-1982). Otherwise, tenorist freelanced throughout his career, playing with Don Ellis & Buddy Rich, but mostly working with pick-up groups. Nistico recorded for several labels as a leader including Riverside, Red, and Beehive.

MUSICIANS WHO
KNEW SAL REMINISCING:
** “I doubt we'll ever hear players like Sal again. EVER! Sal was a true spirit.”
** “Even though he was a gifted musician, he also was very humble.”
** “Sal Nistico was my hero. When I heard him with Woody in 1964, I knew I wanted to be a tenor sax player like Sal. I didn't know how, but I knew that's what I wanted. Thank God I got to meet him a couple of times and tell him how much he meant to me.”
