One of the earliest and finest jazz-rock flutists, Jeremy Steig's an outstanding soloist. He's mastered the entire flute family, including bass, and also plays piccolo well. He has a similarily rich, classically pure tone and timbre like James Newton or Hubert Laws, and uses almost as many devices such as tongue fluttering, humming and swirling lines. But he's not as blues or swing oriented, and his associations include working in the early '60s with Richie Havens, and heading Jeremy And The Satyrs in 1967.
