Johnson, J.J. - Origins: The Savoy Sessions (Mega Blowout Sale)
SKU
SVY 17127
J.J. can very rightly be considered the father of modern trombone, taking the instrument out of dixieland and into the heat and speed of bebop, and even pointing ahead, just a touch, towards the avant-gardists of the 60s.
These are his early (great!) sessions for Savoy from 1946, 1949 and 1954 and include Bud Powell, Sonny Rollins, Charles Mingus, Billy Bauer, Kenny Clarke and others.
