Our Take

Bob Brookmeyer, what a chap! With his Four Classic Albums, he takes us on a musical journey back to the swinging 60s, when jazz ruled the airwaves and big bands were all the rage. Recorded in the fall of 1961, these albums perfectly capture the essence of that era, with Brookmeyer's smooth trombone playing and innovative arrangements.

First up, we have "Brookmeyer," a self-titled album that showcases Brookmeyer's skills as a composer and arranger. From the catchy melodies of "Love Me or Leave Me" to the intricate harmonies of "Night Watch," this album is a true gem for any jazz enthusiast.

Next, we have "Tonites Music Today," a bold and experimental album that pushes the boundaries of traditional jazz. With its avant-garde compositions and daring improvisations, this album is a testament to Brookmeyer's fearless approach to music.

And let's not forget "The Blues Hot And Cold," a fiery and soulful album that pays homage to the blues tradition. From the smoky grooves of "A Blues" to the energetic solos of "Traditional Blues," this album is guaranteed to get your feet tapping and your heart racing.

Overall, Bob Brookmeyer's Four Classic Albums is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates good music. So grab a cup of tea, put on your best tweed jacket, and let Brookmeyer's smooth tunes transport you back to a time when jazz was king. Cheers!
