Very impressed. This man and his gorgeous trombone along with his cool friends. Quality songs and arrangements throughout, all fused with soul, top shelf vocalists -- N'Dambi, Jill Scott, Bilial, Glenn Lewis all in trombone conversations. Take a safe tip...this is one for the collection.

Ahh, yes! What a breath of fresh air this CD is! For starters, it's about time a trombone (bone) soloist steps from behind the back to the front, to take this instrument to new directions. And that's just what Jeff Bradshaw does on his debuting CD, "Bone Deep." From the intro teaser and skits, to collaborations with Jill Scott, Glenn Lewis, and the incredible Bilal, this CD sings from beginning to end. My favorite cuts are "Lookin" and the James Brown remake "Make It Funky." I also especially like the effects Bradshaw employs on his trombone, it gives it an almost synthesized sound. Trust me, this is definitely not the usual trombone sound associated with jazz, and that's a good thing.

That said, if you're strictly a jazz purist, this CD probably won't satisfy you. But for everyone else on planet earth, who enjoy jazz fusion or smooth jazz, "Bone Deep" should be in your collection!!!

I love this album. I orginally purchase it because Glenn Lewis is featured on it and I love him. Glenn sounds so beautiful on the track. The album has a lot of other good cuts but for now I have "Beyond the stars" on repeat.

I love this CD. It is so smooth, upbeat and relaxing. I have told all of my friends about this cd. This is definitely one of my favorites and recommend it to anyone. You do not have to be a jazz fanatic to enjoy this.

Can't imagine why I slept on this for so long - letting all that good music go to waste. Mr. Bradshaw is a real bad-azz on that trombone - and he sings, too!! An entire trombone CD - who would've thunk? I used to love the powerful trombone playing from the group 'Chicago' from back in the day. People never gave it very much credit, but I betcha that'll change now! This CD is very smooth, cool, jazzy, funky, laid back - all that & 2 bags of chips. Favorites are Come Over, which is the cut that drew me to wanting the CD; Beyond the Stars w/Glenn Lewis (Lewis' vocals combined w/that beautiful, haunting background music willl draw you into listening to it over & over again); Smooth Soul - just a cool, chilling song & I loved the way N'Dambi sang Miss Celie's Blues[Sister]. All in all - Bone Deep is one you will want in your collection! Get it!

WOW!!!! Off the chain, off the hook and everything in between. The cuts on this are so good and the best part is each one is so varied. I am loving it. He plays the trumbone in such a unique way. Such and enjoyable experience. This cd gives you such a warm feeling. It's deliciously thumping!!! A must have for the jazzy. Enjoy.

You can hear Jeff Bradshaw's cd on www.im4radio.com anytime. Call and request it as well. This cd is a masterpiece. He plays the trom"bone" like I never heard it before. Every song on the cd has flavor to the bone.

Hidden Beach is on to something. What other label could put out a CD of a cat who plays the trombone and be taken seriously? Trust me..this CD jams, swings, sways and just keeps giving you more with each track. For me, I dig the Jill Scott cut, the Glenn Lewis track and the remake of "Make it Funky," but best of all, I dig Jeff Bradshaw's outta sight trombone playing. Go get this one..you'll have it in your CD changer for months to come....Jeff Bradshaw is the new man with a horn.

NOW, STOP READING....GET THE CD...! JJ

Alright, I have to admit that I was skeptical when this cd was recommended to me. However, this cd is a classic! It represents the best of the best neo-soul artists at their very best. I never thought a trombone cd could be so good. It hasn't left my cd changer since I picked it up. Go get this CD!

I reallly like this album. What first attracted me to this album is the guest appearance of Glenn Lewis on the song "Beyond the stars". I really love this song!!!
