Steve Turre is a monster! Brilliant trombonist but also conche blower… Ray Charles before joining Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, and then Steve Turre worked with Dizzy Gillespie, McCoy Tyner, JJ Johnson, Herbie Hancock, Lester Bowie, Tito Puente, Mongo Santamaria, Van Morrison, Pharoah Sanders, Horace Silver, Max Roach and Rahsaan Roland Kirk.
