Dicky Wells - Trombone Four-In-Hand

This is the second album that Wells recorded for Felsted, and the finer of the two in my opinion.  Lots more of what the people want - soloing and super killin ensemble work.  There are four trombone players on this date, so if you're not down with that nasally a-tonal sound, this album may not be for you.  That said, Skip Hall and the guitarists, Burrell/Barksdale, do a great job to counter the 'bone dominance.

Once again this comes from my Felsted boxset and is in FLAC.  If you are just joining us please check out the previous posts here.  Enjoy!!
