    Fusion was GOOD for jazz. That made them be able to do this event. Has there been any solidified interest in jazz in 25 or so years. NO! Wynton has not made the music more popular in any way. But Chick, Stanley, Hubert laws, Wayne Shorter, George Benson all brought people into the music and helped them understand the true spirit of the music. It's adventure, power and variety...

    you should check out 4th floor walk up on the album...his wild life refuge band kicks ass with Danny Stiles on trumpet/flug horn. It is a must hear for any and all bone players...

    You should try to get a hold of Watrous' recording of Spain with his band. I think on the album of the same name. Totally unreal... one of my favorite recordings, ever. And, I agree... great, great post.

    Great great post - what a band! I'm no "bone" player but that has to be about the best trombone solo I've ever heard. Benson does fine job, too, interesting how he always gets his trademark tone regardless of what guitar, whether playing on that gorgeous vintage D'Angelico here or his later plywood Ibanez GB models.

    Hubert plays so relaxed. His hands are amazing, and his sound is great - a great student of Julius Baker. Don't forget that this is no random "Down Beat" jam session. Chick was in Hubert's band and plays on Hubert's first record as a leader, "Laws of Jazz." Armando Corea he was.
