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.

For trombone playing I second Marakanetz on the Carla Bley.
"Live" has some Valente trombone playing that will get you up out of your chair.

J.J. Johnson for some good bop trombone in small group settings.

Bruce Gertz Quintet "Blueprint". Gertz on acoustic bass with John Abercrombie on guitar plus a tenor, piano, and drums.

Charlie Haden has played acoustic bass with everybody in the world and most is very good. Check out "Alone Together" with Lee Konitz on saxophone and Brad Mehldau on piano. Very Nice. Same group on "another shade of blue."
