I was lucky to attend high school with his son Ted. He performed with our high school jazz band a few times. What a great player. As of the day I write this, (9/2/2024) he is still living.

By the way, he taught himself to play. Was never told "that can't be done".

I've played with him many times. You don't want to have the solo after his. My jaw is on the floor, then it's my turn. It ain't happenin'.

Do you have a link to where i could find sheet music to the black nile soli? Great wrok btw!

Tasty. 😎

Wow

Encore!!

What trombone? Old King 2b? What mouthpiece? Incredible range!

Wow!!

He's Superman alright.

Using all of these for inspiration in my big band writing, just top class stuff

I am so in love with this guy. Married 41 years. He is the music he plays. Such a big heart.

what

Love the bass bone cutting through also. (Former bass bone player).

There’s a great trombone soli in Andrew Neu’s chart “Too Much of a Good Thing”, as well as Buddy Childers’ “The ‘Bone’ Zone”!

Wow, that’s some great playing!

Fine playing.

nah, your playlist needs and deserves a lot more attention!!

Little girl is my favorite!

Bro you should've added a song named How High the Moon by Mark Taylor cause that song has a fire trombone soli dude it's amazing 🔥🔥🔥

I am 100% going to learn this (im not(i am)) this sounds so pretty what a unique tone !

Where do you find the recording of this? Can’t find anything on Spotify or RU-vid

Have you done torque by Alan baylock yet

Awesome work! 😮 so many tasty moments

Loving it! What happened to the trombone solo in The Toad? Was it not a 'moment'?

So glad you included the Note Invitation! The short second soli in the middle is also amazing.

HE'S BACK BABY

Best trombone videos!

Is there any way to get ahold of the full big band chart for Just Friends?

Transcription idea: Jeanne from Jay&Kai +6 album

First 30 secs are unreal

Pretty nice. I liked the Tomy Dorsey high notes. Pretty scream too. Simple piece, ba waa? Small mouth piece makes it..

Dave’s wife is playing the violin part. Dave has an awesome sweet style. One of my favorite modern day soloists.

i knew i was in for a treat when 23 degrees north and 82 degrees west was the first one

Beautiful 😍

Sweet

I’m sitting outside on a perfect Sunday afternoon loving every second of this song and bill watrous 🫶🏾

I’m guessing you enter playing all the stuff you share on here?

This is wonderful, impressive, and awesome...but I'm sure Dave broke numerous laws of nature there. Wow!

Could be the sexiest rendition of this beautiful love song. Thank you.

Killer solo 🔥🔥

I love this

That’s crazy high at the end. And with such a clear and beautiful tone. Wow.

Wow ❤❤❤
