Was listenng to Enrico Rava quartet this evening and the trombonist caught my attention! Wonderful full, smooth and deep sound. Any music recommendations for jazz trombone as a featured or accompanying instrument?
All the above, plus...Urbie Green, Frank Rosolino, Al Grey, Slide Hampton, Bob Brookmeyer, Rob McConnell, Andy Martin, Jim Pugh, Jimmy Knepper, Bill Watrous...just to get you started...many, many more! Enjoy!
Kai Winding is fun - One of my favorites is Dance to the City Beat. Don't know if you're into vinyl or not, but if you find this on the original Columbia 6-eye, the sound is awesome. He also did a number of collaborative lp's during the 6-eye era with J.J. Johnson.
There's a couple of video clips on the Kai Winding website: http://bjbear71.com/Winding/Live-concerts-2.html#Listen_and_Watch
One of the trombone greats, who flew mostly under the radar, is Frank Rosolino. I'd recommend his overlooked 1976 album with Conte Candoli on trumpet: "Conversation", but you can search Ebay for his name as a sideman and find some great classics.
