Randy Brecker gets featured with the Louis Bellson Big Band on a live show. You can hear that Randy Brecker was already influencing the Jazz world with his new age trumpet style back when this video was recorded.

This is one of my favorite Freddie Hubbard Jazz trumpet solos. It is off his album Ready for Freddie on the tune Birdlike. One of the reasons I’m impressed with this Freddie Hubbard trumpet solo is because it lasts for about 4 minutes and Freddie Hubbard never fails to run out of good ideas, let […] Read the rest of this entry…
The chord changes for The Song Is You are pretty difficult. It’s amazing how easily Ryan Kisor takes a ride over these chord changes while making beautiful melodies at a pretty fast speed.

This Jazz video includes Jon Faddis, James Morrison, Wynton Marsalis, and Arturo Sandoval. Arturo Sandoval kind of takes the group of Jazz trumpet players […] Read the rest of this entry…
Tom Harrell is one of my favorite jazz trumpeters ever. These two Jazz trumpet solos are a big reason why. Tom Harrell has a really nice trumpet sound and Jazz style on these two solos.
