yes, this music is pop, elevatorish, but the sound of 21 trombones with 4 on each part and urbie, is a great sound.
Urbie's solos are smooth, always fitting the music, and varied.
His sound is sound transforms from brash in your face to smooth and like butter.
his fast runs are always effortless.
if you just love the trombone sound and great solos i highly recommend this cd.

5.0 out of 5 stars 21 Fabulous Trombones, December 23, 2004

This is a one of a kind album. Fantastic! However, the original release date of 1987 is incorrect. I bought the album back in the mid to late 1960's.

Urbie Green and the rest of the 21 trombones, some of which are well known, are absolutely awesome. Their harmony is very rich starting with multiple bass trombones continuing up to the stratosphere on some tunes. Some trumpet players mistakenly think that the high notes are too high to be made by trombones. Their musicianship and interpretation are very stylish. The variety of styles from tune to tune is enjoyable. The arrangements are very interesting.
