you just can't stop with the jazz trombone
to be clear, not asking
most anything Van Gelder worth a listen
thank you for the introduction
please allow me to take it from here

been intrigued by Charlie Rouse for quite some time
because Monk had an ear for him in the 60'

full album
Rouse plays on the first half

To me, Rouse has his own sound. It's really distinctive -- hard to confuse him with anyone else. I mark him as an "original" guy, the same way as I think of Dolphy.

Nothing like a 6-piece. Could watch Mingus's right foot all day. Dolphy was on another plane. Love Dannie Richmond and Mingus together, too --- all charm.

starting 'round 26:25, Jaki Byard is the focus to one of the greatest song titles that er' lived a Mingus

my junior high phys ed coach developed vitiligo later in life
pleasing to see Johnny Coles blowing the **** out of his trumpet while representing a similar condition
how quickly brass flute valves are compared to hollow bamboo tubes when embûched by a master

to continue the string post

Mingus six piece Newport '70
Richmond and Byard still in attendance

first song was mentioned above
interesting to hear the ears age after six years
how many times can they change signatures and still cash checks?

Les McCann died a couple days ago at 88. This has been a perennial favorite.
