For bass, start checking out CHRISTIAN MCBRIDE!!! He's the MAN right now. Trombone: Julian Priester w/ David Holland. Bari--Cecil Payne's pretty hip. Hey, and don't forget Lisa Simpson ^_^
Acoustic Bass, Trombone, and Baritone
These are the three instruments I love listening too in jazz recordings,when accompanied by piano,drums, acoustic guitar or another wind instrument (tenor sax) in a trio or quartet. Presently I have Ray Brown (6 CDs) for bass, Thurman Green and Steve Turre (4 CDs) for trombone and Gerry Mulligan and Hamiett Bluiett (4 CDs) for baritone. Can anyone suggest other artist using any of the instrument mentioned in good recorded jazz CDs? Professor SdCampbell, can you make a comment please. Thank you very much and happy listening to all.
