Something I have been wondering about is adding reverb to recordings.

This:

is a recent effort of Swimbo on the alto that I rather like but without any
reverb applied. Would anyone consider reverb to be necessary in this
instance? I do rather get the impression that some people consider a little
reverb to be essential on just about everything..??
