Lucky Thompson
Eli "Lucky" Thompson (June 16, 1924 — July 30, 2005) was a United States jazz tenor and soprano saxophonist. While John Coltrane usually receives the most credit for bringing the soprano saxophone out of obsolescence in the early 1960s, Thompson, along with Steve Lacy, embraced the instrument earlier than did Coltrane.[not in citation given]
