1) I would really like a library by east west sampling saxophones like they did all instruments in the hollywood series.
2) Also, jazz sampling of brass and woodwinds in general would be really awesome and useful. Now I find that the brass in hollywood brass isn't really capable of making it in jazzy pieces. They just sound plain awkward, with the exception of the trombone. Even the jazz articulations in goliath are better than when trying to do the same thing with hollywood brass.
If I understand correctly the hollywood series was produced mainly for film (and game) composers, to give them a set of high quality samples that give the sound and feeling of film or game music. I think in the current film music, a lot of jazz is used. Saxophones are a big part of them, so it might be these suggestions are inherent to each other. A jazz Hollywood library would be really awesome, and I would want that much more than the rumoured hollywood choirs!
