By Tad Hendrickson It's hard to know where to begin with San Francisco-based trombonist Wayne Wallace. Since going professional at 16, he's played with such varied legends as Ray Charles, McCoy Tyner, Lena Horne, Earth Wind & Fire and John Lee Hooker. He's twice been nominated as “Talent Deserving Wider Recognition" and once for his trombone ...
Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Quintet: Bien Bien!
by Raul d'Gama Rose
The music with clave that began with Machito's “Tanga," and George Russell's “Cubana-Be Cubana-Bop" has come a long way. With clave in his soul, trombonist Wayne Wallace proves, yet again, on Bien Bien! that the cheer of the music is truly infectious. Wallace is rare among musicians who can swing as well as he can clave. ...
