Steve Turre - Right There - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Steve Turre - Generations [COMPACT DISCS] date 09/16/2022

Steve Turre demonstrates once again why he is one of the first call trombonists in the world on his fifth recording for HighNote Records, Woody's Delight. This record is an aptly named homage to his mentor and former boss, Woody Shaw. Steve offers an intensely interesting program featuring five of the finest trumpeters in jazz today Jon Faddis, Wallace Roney, Claudio Roditi, Freddie Hendrix and Chocolate Armenteros.

Steve Turre has won any number of Downbeat Critic's and Reader's Polls and has been a fixture in the SNL TV band for nearly 30 years. He has, almost single-handedly squashed the trumpet-saxophone front line monopoly and has circumnavigated the globe several times. With Steve Davis, Frank Lacy and Robin Eubanks, Steve and company give ample testimony to the fact that the golden age of the trombone is now and put on display the many moods and capabilities of perhaps the noblest instrument in Jazz.
