Genre: Jazz/Trombone Composer: Brett Stamps The Bigger Badder Bones featuring Andre Hayward, an extremely gifted trombonist with the sound and clarity reminiscent of the late J.J. Johnson, features five premier trombonists (listed above) with a solid rhythm section. The Big Bad Bones perform a variety of styles including funk, swing, samba, and light rock. Hayward's gospel-tinged approach is refreshing and will warm hearts. All of Brett Stamps compositions reflect many stages in his life...: Sliders reflects the jazz double-entendre derived from the blues, where the title can mean several different things (the group prefers trombonists over hamburgers). The Winning Edge, You Heard That Right and Forget About It all represent mixtures of latin, funk and swing that create complex song forms derived from music Stamps has listened to over his lifetime. Waiting For Adeline (influenced by the ECM label recordings of the 1980s), Boot-Scoot Sweetie (Addie's first crawl was at light speed) and Livi's Waltz (influenced by Bill Evans' Waltz For Debby) are dedicated to Stamps' granddaughters Adeline and Olivia. Blues For J & K is a tribute to the great trombonists' J J Johnson and Kai Winding who set the example for all jazz trombone ensembles (the bone soli in this recording was a highlight of the session). Down Home creates a strong blues feeling without relying on a 12-bar format (reminiscent of Birth of the Blues). Fleeting Moments is unique in that it uses root relationships to create tension and release rather than dominant-tonic relationships. Stuff Like This was influenced by Quincy Jones's Stuff Like That where Stamps borrowed the groove and created his own version. Brett Stamps is a proud alum of the Stan Kenton Orchestra and has performed with Tony Bennett, Aretha Franklin, Sammy Davis, Jr., Barry Manilow, The Temptations, and a host of other jazz and pop artists.
