Our Take

SLIDE HAMPTON’s Complete Studio Recordings is a jazz lover's dream come true. This compilation album showcases the versatile talents of the legendary trombonist and arranger in all their glory. From swinging big band numbers to soulful ballads, each track is a testament to Hampton's incredible skill and creativity.

The album kicks off with the exhilarating "Frames of My Life," a lively tune that sets the tone for what's to come. Hampton's rich, velvety trombone takes centre stage, weaving in and out of complex arrangements with ease. The brass section is tight and energetic, providing the perfect backdrop for Hampton's solos.

Throughout the album, Hampton continues to impress with his inventive takes on classic standards. Tracks like "Smooth Sailing" and "Amazonia" showcase his ability to breathe new life into old favourites, while original compositions like "Reflections" offer a glimpse into his creative process.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Slide, A Little," a rollicking number that showcases Hampton's playful side. The infectious melody and driving rhythm are guaranteed to get your toes tapping, while Hampton's masterful improvisation will leave you in awe.

Overall, SLIDE HAMPTON’s Complete Studio Recordings is a must-have for any jazz aficionado. With its impeccable musicianship and infectious energy, this album is sure to become a cherished addition to your collection. So sit back, relax, and let the sounds of Slide Hampton sweep you off your feet. Trust us, you won't regret it.
