Bob James: Obsession (1986)

As usual, Bob James is joined by an all-star cast on this 1986 release. Steve Khan, Marcus Miller, Randy and Michael Brecker, saxophonists Andy Snitzer and Kirk Whalum, Jon Faddis, and vocalist Lisa Fischer all lend their talents to this R&B flavored recording.

Steve Turre: Woody's Delight (2012)

Steve Turre demonstrates once again why he is one of the first call trombonists in the world on his fifth recording for HighNote Records, WOODY'S DELIGHT. This record is an aptly named homage to his mentor and former boss, Woody Shaw. Steve offers an intensely interesting program featuring five of today's greatest trumpeters in a program that captures at once Woody's fierce intensity, his limitless imagination and versatility and refracts it through the creative mind of Turre who delivers a tribute record which goes far beyond playing familiar repertoire but rather recalls the very spirit of its subject. On hand to help are the trumpeters Jon Faddis, Wallace Roney, Claudio Roditi, Freddie Hendrix and Chocolate Armenteros.

1. Woody's Delight
2. Something For Sweets
