Frederick Alfred Freddy Martin December 9 1906 – September 30 1983 Was An American Bandleader And Tenor Saxophonist. Freddy Martin Was Nicknamed "Mr. Silvertone" By Saxophonist Johnny Hodges. Chu Berry Named Freddy Martin His Favorite Saxophonist. He Has Also Been Idolized By Many Other Saxophonists Including Eddie Miller. Although His Playing Has Been Admired By So Many Jazz Musicians Freddy Martin Never Tried To Be A Jazz Musician. Martin Always Led A Sweet Styled Band. Unlike Most Sweet Bands That Just Played Dull Music Martin's Band Turned Out To Be One Of The Most Musical And Most Melodic Of All The Typical Hotel-Room Sweet Bands. According To George T. Simon Freddy's Band Was "one Of The Most Pleasant Most Relaxed Dance Bands That Ever Flowed Across The Band Scene." He Used The Banner "Music In The Martin Manner." Russ Morgan Used A Similar Banner When He Finally Landed A Radio Series With His Own Band In 1936. Morgan's Title Was "Music In The Morgan Manner". Russ Had Been Playing In Freddy's Band And The Two Were Good Friends For Years. Russ Even Used Some Of Freddy's Arrangements When He Started His Band.
