I was thinking about various jazz alto styles, and decided there are 
four main categories, with some proponents listed below.

Lyrical: Johnny Hodges, Charlie Holmes, Tab Smith.
Craggy (angular): Toots Mondello, Pete Brown, Earl Warren, Lem Davis, 
Rudy Williams.
Melodic: Benny Carter, Jimmy Dorsey, Pete Pumiglio,
Driving: Willie Smith (Tab Smith and Rudy Williams could be here also).
