Calvin Owens: True Blue
|
|
| The line between styles of music often gets blurred beyond the point of usefulness. So, what kind of record is this release from trumpeter Calvin Owens? Blues? With people like B.B. King (Owens' former boss) & Johnny Copeland dropping by, absolutely. Jump-swing? Sure, the trendy folks certainly can wiggle to the fast tracks. Jazz? Look out when David "Fat Head" Newman or Shelley Carroll make an appearance. Everyone can dig this record. Warning: Only the most brutal lead trumpet players need apply for this gig---this is one rough assignment! | |
