A great recollection to an almost forgotten trombone player.

Durium

Never heard of this cat, but now I'm interested in hearing him. That's the beauty of this thread: a constant calling to listen to new people/groups. JSangry has certianly mentioned a ton of music that I've never heard of before. :tup

I'll bet it's great. I don't know much of his playing, but I've heard a few tunes arranged by others and like them very much. Namely Rudd's version of "Everywhere," which slays...

Jan Lundgren Trio, Cooking at the Jazz Bakery.

This is somewhat of a gamble, as I've never heard anything by Lundgren, but I recently read some good writeups on Doug Ramsay's blog and elsewhere.

So what do you think abou it? Now, I haven't heard the Bakery album, but I know that Lundgren can play, if given the right setting. It seems that he is rather conventional when he's calling the shots himself, but can be forced into a more adventurous mode if the setting asks for it.

Well, it's pretty good, but perhaps I would have been better off going for a more adventurous setting. Lundgren can certainly play, but his approach on this album seems a little conventional and polite. Granted, it must be tough to record an album full of such well-known bop standards. So, I'm a little disappointed, but the set isn't going onto the sell pile.

I sold some old ones so I'm buying some new ones. Instead of stacking onto artists I already have several of, I'm adding some new blood into my collection.

And to round out my Jazz Brothers trilogy: (I guess I'd be stacking onto 1 CD. :) ) (I enjoy Sal Nistico on these.)
