B2P 015 - Steve Turre presented by Hip-BoneMusic
Manage episode 310064704 series 3047444
I was first introduced to Steve Turre’s playing in the late 1970’s when he was a member of the groundbreaking Woody Shaw quintet. I have always been and always will be a rabid fan of the great Woody Shaw. When he added Steve to his quintet to replace the saxophone, I was hooked. Since then I have followed Steve’s inspiring and remarkable career with admiration and respect. I was honored that he shared his exceptional musical creativity on my Absolute Trombone CD in 1997 and am thrilled that he was willing to sit down with me for this interview. Enjoy!
