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.

Yeah, Carla Bley is a serious artist with her tongue planted firmly in her cheek. The trombonist she uses is Gary Valente who seems to able to burn the laquer right off the bell.

With Ray Brown, what can I say?

My fav bari player is Pepper Adams, who was a technically adroit player with a ballsy sound. Gary Smulyan is his heir-apparent.
