I always used to listen to swing music in the early 'Forties and, in fact, I was just a kid at the time. I did not really intend becoming a tenor player, though I always liked tenor. I think maybe Dizzy influenced me more than Parker because he was sort of more accessible, he caught your attention more. As far as my influences over the years are concerned, Getz was it at one stage in the proceedings, and later Rollins, Coltrane, Hank Mobley and, to a lesser degree, even Zoot ims

Career

1951–58

Hayes's youthful promise on tenor saxophone was recognised in 1951 when, aged 16, he joined Kenny Baker's sextet, and later for big-band leaders such as

, Terry Brown, Tito Burns, Roy Fox, Vic Lewis and Jack Parnell. With the assistance of music impresario Tito Burns, Hayes formed his own octet in 1955, known as Tubby Hayes & His Orchestra. The group toured the UK extensively and recorded several sessions for Tempo Records but disbanded in 1956 as Hayes pursued other musical opportunities, including his own quartet. Hayes's voracious musical interests resulted in his learning the

Although the vibes became an occasional instrument on some of his recordings, Hayes eventually became frustrated at lacking "the technique to do half the things I can do on the saxophone" and recorded his final solo on the instrument in 1966. Instead, Hayes's interest remained focused on

and made his recording debut on the instrument a year later. He continued to feature the flute alongside his saxophone performances to the end of his recording career. Hayes's breakthrough came in 1957 when he joined fellow tenor saxophonist Ronnie Scott to co-lead the Jazz Couriers, whose East Coast jazz aesthetic was influential within the British jazz scene and beyond. Scott, who would later also become known as a noted raconteur, had originally met Hayes in 1950 and was immediately impressed by the "fat kid's" virtuosity. The encounter was a story Scott would relate frequently: "This little boy came up, not much bigger than his tenor sax. Rather patronisingly I suggested a number and off he went. He scared me to death". Considered one of the most successful British jazz groups of its era, the Jazz Couriers would record a series of highly regarded albums and would engage in a successful tour with the Dave Brubeck Quartet.

1959–67

By 1959, Hayes had reformed his quartet, resulting in the recording of ''Tubby's Groove''. Released in the spring of 1960, ''Tubby's Groove'' was widely considered to be Hayes's best session to date, selling well and acquiring positive attention from the music press for its "maturity". It was during this time that Hayes attracted attention from Alfred Lion, co-founder of

1968–73

Hayes's issues arising from the downturn in the UK jazz circuit were made worse by a combination of relationship, alcohol and narcotics issues, which by 1968 had begun to publicly affect his career. He was arrested at his home in Chelsea in August 1968 for possession of heroin and, owing to his difficulties with addiction, was given a suspended sentence. By the end of the following year, he had begun to experience breathing difficulties when playing, the latest in a long series of afflictions. In July 1971, he underwent open heart surgery to replace the
