Trombonist Wycliffe Gordon was the most adventurous musician to spin off from Wynton Marsalis' orbit. Since his tenure with Marsalis, Gordon collaborated with everyone from revivalists in the Sidney Bechet Project to progressive composer Ted Nash and Randy Sandke's Inside Outside project, which brings together practitioners from the musical extremes. He's been more restricted in his own solo dates but has shown he's willing to reach beyond the confines of traditional hard bop. Dig This!! finds him employing the fashionable textures provided by the Hammond organ. True to form though, Gordon refuses to get locked into the funk clichés of the organ combo sound. Rather with its wide-open swing feel Dig This!! comes off more as a contemporary version of swing trombonist Vic Dickenson's 1952 quartet dates with Bill Doggett. Certainly "Limehouse Blues" fits the mold, albeit updated. And Gordon's unaccompanied playing on "Blues Etude #2" and elsewhere shows him a fitting successor to Dickenson's rubbery expressionism. Gordon has surrounded himself with a fine band. Organist Sam Yahel and guitarist Peter Bernstein each reveal a debt to their swing precursors while saxophonist Seamus Blake plays in a hard-driving contemporary manner. All of them swing, and regardless the context Gordon puts himself in, that's a constant. ~ David Dupont

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars ENCORE!
Wycliffe Gordon talks with his trombone. Yes, talks. Using various mutes and gizmos and his seemingly endless array of thoughts, he plays the blooz (as he likes to call it) as if he was using his vocal chords (no pun intended). No trombonist I've ever heard can make so many different sounds and convey so many different moods with his instrument. I've seen Wycliffe live twice and his favorite combo of props usually include a pixie mute and plunger. Simple, yet highly effective! This album never gets boring and Wycliffe shows off his talking trombone and extensive range and exquisit technique. Definately a quintet of stars for this record.

#13 Spring 87- Morris Day Wycliffe, I am not suprised at the success you've gained. This CD potrays the excellence you began to hone as a member of the Marching 100. Your style has surpassed all of our wildest imaginations. The magnificent sounds of your trombone are unlike that of any trombonist ever heard!!!

5 stars "Wycliffe does it again"
Everytime he comes with a cd it's better than the last. Wycliife's improve has so much soulistic expression that plays out through the entire cd. And his plunger work will make a grown man cry. Check this cd out, it's his best one yet!!!!!!!

When it comes to inside playing versus outside playing, John McNeil has always believed in keeping his options open. The trumpeter can be quite lyrical and melodic, but that doesn't mean he won't get into dissonant outside playing when it's appropriate. McNeil has been greatly influenced by Miles Davis and Chet Baker, but that hasn't prevented him from learning ...
