Album Notes & Community Reviews

Making his debut as a bandleader, the versatile trombonist steps out from his sideman work with Max Roach to deliver a muscular, driving date. His fluid, agile approach to the slide instrument thrives within the quintet setting, backed by a spirited rhythm section that maintains an aggressive, deeply grooving momentum.
