Jimmy Knepper - A Swinging Introduction To Jimmy Knepper
Review by Krishnaveni Balasubramanian
A Swinging Introduction To Jimmy Knepper by Jimmy Knepper is a must-have album for any jazz enthusiast. The album features Knepper's exceptional trombone playing, which is both soulful and energetic. The album is a collection of some of Knepper's best-known songs, including "Just Friends," "Lament," and "Stella by Starlight."
The album is a perfect introduction to Knepper's work, showcasing his unique style and virtuosity. The album is a great example of the hard bop sound that was popular in the 1950s and 60s. Knepper's playing is backed by a stellar ensemble of musicians, including pianist Ronnie Mathews, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Roy Haynes.
