Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Quintet: Bien Bien!
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
With ¡Bien Bien!, as with previous releases, trombonist Wayne Wallace and his group display a very subtle kind of mastery. The elements of the combo's excellence are impressive enough.

Il tutto senza mai dimenticare l'amore per il jazz. ...
Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Quintet: Infinity
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
With The Nature of the Beat (Patois, 2008), trombone virtuoso Wayne Wallace established himself as the musician you'd most like to have living in the downstairs apartment.
