The Quintessence : New York, Hackensack, Chicago 1945-1961

Description

« Jay Jay Johnson's trombone has managed to create a modern instrument in jazz and thus rise to the level of the great creators of Be Bop (Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Bud Powell, Thelonious Monk, Miles Davis) with whom he has associated. A virtuoso instrumentalist and leading improviser, he was also an excellent composer. » Jean-Paul Ricard
