Tyree Glenn on Louis in London
Posted: Sun Jul 28, 2024 1:22 pm
I just listened to the recent release of Louis in London which consists of many previously unreleased Louis Armstrong recordings in the BBC. I had to look up who the trombone player was! It was Tyree Glenn. He really comes across as the primary complement to Armstrong’s playing and singing. He plays in a style that, in my opinion, is really lost in modern jazz (maybe I’m wrong). If you haven’t checked out this album I’d encourage you to give a listen. It’s on Spotify and probably elsewhere too.
