DESCRIPTION
Jazz trombonist Rick Simerly is the Associate Professor of Music at Milligan College in Tennessee. He has been described by David Baker as "one of the most exciting and consistently creative trombonists in jazz today." the Jazz Review says "when jazz fans think about great trombone players, only a few names come to mind, J.J. Johnson, Steve Turre, or maybe Bill Watrous. Soon jazz fans will be praising the slide horn of Rick Simerly." Rick has played in the bands of Tommy Dorsey, Woody Herman, Nelson Riddle, Les Elgart, Bob Crosby, Jimmy Dorsey, Buddy Morrow, and the last band of Charlie Spivak. This 11 track album of originals and standards features Eric Alexander, Scott Wendholt, David Hazeltine, Lynn Seaton and Steve Davis.
