Roswell Rudd - Flexible Flyer
Review by Millah Fatimah
Flexible Flyer is a jazz album by Roswell Rudd, a celebrated American trombonist. Released in 1975, this album is a stunning showcase of Rudd's unique style and his ability to blend jazz with folk and blues influences.
The album features a range of tracks that highlight Rudd's mastery of the trombone, as well as his talent for improvisation. From the opening track, "Satan's Dance," which features a lively and energetic performance by Rudd and his band, to the haunting and beautiful "You Blew It," the album is a masterclass in jazz music.
What sets Flexible Flyer apart from other jazz albums is the way that Rudd blends different musical styles to create a sound that is both unique and compelling. His use of folk and blues influences adds a depth and richness to the music that is truly captivating.
