[@PaulTheTrombonist]

i love this

[@francisj.opolko3728]

The PLAYING!!! This was also a great recording!

[@AryanShehranMusic]

Elliot’s teacher definitely can hear it in his playing

[@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptions]

You can, can't you! I believe he was originally assigned to Phil Wilson (at Berklee) but insisted on being switched to Hal.

[@AryanShehranMusic]

@@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptionsso interesting!

[@AryanShehranMusic]

@@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptionsdo you know any other plauers that sound remotely close to Elliot?

[@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptions]

@@AryanShehranMusic No! Hal is probably the closest, but only in style and not sound.

[@AryanShehranMusic]

@@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptions Yeah for sure! Elliot has that darkness and broadness. Definitely want that in my playing.

Amazing

[@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptions]

Possibly jazz's most under-appreciated trombonist in my view.

[@alaneverton667]

The best!

[@LowBrassLuke]

One of my favorite solos. From what I can hear the third bar of the form isn’t really 7 over 4. The F hits right on beat 2 and it’s all 8th notes till the end of the bar. FDEbFGAb are all 8th notes. It’s hard to notate because he essentially stretches the time until beat 2 of measure 3.

[@RobEgertonJazzTranscriptions]

Yeah, that section almost took me longer than the rest put together. Such is the nature of standard notation, I was never really happy with it!

One of the most overlooked jazz trombonists ever.

[@DavePlaysTrombone]

Why is some random Mexican group getting the credit for this?

[@jacobruiz97]

What? Where?

[@jacobruiz97]

Never mind I just saw it. Damn KZbin
