Notes
Wycliffe Gordon, a master of the trombone, trumpet and Sousaphone, has always been known as an impressive and versatile jazz musician. His bubbling, barking Sousaphone accentuates the lively band’s instrumentation on his new release: “Dreams from New Orleans.” from his upbeat and smooth ‘St. Louis Blues’ to the down tempo and political ‘Down by the Riverside’, Gordon brings a gorgeous range of jazz music that makes you feel like you’re right in front of him and the rest of the band performing live. Utilizing the Chesky Records Binaural style ‘Dreams of New Orleans” sounds fresh, crystal clear and live with a polished sheen.
