The trombone is an instrument that gets no respect. Although present in many musical settings, the instrument rarely gets the spotlight. Trombone legend Roswell Rudd has been trying to correct this oversight for half a decade. His new recording Trombone Tribe is a dedication to the trombone and the styles of music that best suit it. Rudd has been on the forefront of modern jazz his entire career but has also indulged in the music that set the music’s foundation, Dixieland. Trombone Tribe showcases the breadth of Rudd’s musical interests with a cast of remarkable musicians. Rudd has gathered some of the greatest trombonists playing today, including Wycliffe Gordon, Eddie Bert, Josh Roseman, Steve Swell, Sam Burtis and Deborah Weisz. The rhythm section of Rudd’s Trombone Tribe is made up of legendary musicians like bassist Henry Grimes, tuba player Bob Stewart and drummer Barry Altschul. Rudd also mixes it up with two of the best jamming jazz/funk groups, Sex Mob and Bonerama. The music is a celebration of the trombone and the part it has played in jazz from its earliest days.

Unique because of the multiple trombone concept which is somewhat atypical in the jazz genre. Interesting selection of titles, including one vocal ensemble as part of an extended closing suite. BONE AGAIN has got a funky swing.
