Description
Matthew Gee All Stars - Jazz By Gee Riverside RLP 12-221 Jazz Trombone Blue Label 1958 issue Cover & Lp - Ex+/Nm- Play graded very clean for a 55 year old Lp!
Jazz by Gee is the debut album by American jazz trombonist Matthew Gee featuring tracks recorded in 1956 for the Riverside label.[1]
[edit]
Allmusic awarded the album 2 stars with Scott Yanow stating "The music is quite bop-oriented and mixes together standards with three swinging Gee originals. An underrated and generally overlooked gem by a forgotten trombonist".[2]
