A jazz great, Hubbard's trumpet took him from Indiana to the world stage. He will be missed.

                22 when he recorded Open Sesame, his solo debut, in June 1960. That album, 
                featuring Hank Mobley, McCoy Tyner, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones, set the 
                stage for one of the more meteoric careers in jazz.
                </blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.jazztrumpetsolos.com/Hubbard.asp">An exceptionally talented virtuoso performer, Hubbard's 
                  rich full tone is never lost, even when he plays dazzlingly fast passages. As 
                  one of the greatest of hard bop trumpeters, he contrives to create impassioned 
                  blues lines without losing the contemporary context within which he plays. 
                  Although his periodic shifts into jazz-rock have widened his audience, he is at 
                  his best playing jazz. </blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/DE86D3B2-72C5-4337-8528-335FD2F4DCF5/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
