Wycliffe Gordon: United Soul Experience & Dig This!!

Read "Wycliffe Gordon: United Soul Experience & Dig This!!" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


Straight out of the Wynton Marsalis school of jazz, trombone man Wycliffe Gordon cut his teeth with the ubiquitous trumpeter, yet unlike many from the Marsalis clan, Gordon has shown over the past few years that his musical personality takes in far more far reaching influences than the retro styled swing that Marsalis chooses as his ...

Wycliffe Gordon: Dig This!!

Read "Dig This!!" reviewed by Joe Klee


Wycliffe Gordon is a trombone player who knows his instrument from the primordial playing of Kid Ory and Honore Dutrey through giants like Jack Teagarden and J.J. Johnson up to and including today's best like Steve Turre. This ability is nowhere better illustrated than on this new CD covering music as classic as “Limehouse Blues" and ...

Wycliffe Gordon: United Soul Experience

Read "United Soul Experience" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


It's dangerous to take labels too seriously where music is involved. Take Wycliffe Gordon, for instance. A protégé of Wynton Marsalis and former charter member of the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, the trombonist is most clearly associated with mainstream sensibilities. Truth be told, however, Gordon has evidenced varied interests by such projects as his studio effort ...

Wycliffe Gordon Quintet: United Soul Experience

Read "United Soul Experience" reviewed by David A. Orthmann


The brainchild of producer Gerry Teekens, United Soul Experience extricates trombonist Wycliffe Gordon from the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra orbit and teams him with some of the most interesting young talent in the Criss Cross stable. Tradition-minded but not predictable, the music alludes to several jazz and funk styles without settling into any one of them. ...

Wycliffe Gordon/Eric Reed: We

Read "We" reviewed by Dave Nathan


German label Nagel Heyer knows a good thing when it sees and hears it. This is the third time it has brought New Orleans/post bop trombonist Wycliffe Gordon and contemporary jazz pianist Eric Reed into the studio. But stylistic classifications are set aside when they get together. These two clearly have a special bond which comes ...

Wycliffe Gordon And Eric Reed: We

Read "We" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Concerto for Wycliffe? In classical music, this would be termed a trombone recital. Wycliffe Gordon, arguable the finest trombonist practicing, joins uber-pianist Eric Reed for an assembly of standards, originals and spirituals. The duet is pentultimately the most spare of formats to play within. This spareness is relieved to a degree by Reed's pungently orchestral approach ...
