Bob McChesney
The 27th Annual Sunbelt Jazz Festival
The University of West Georgia
Featuring Bob McChesney, trombone
Steven Loewy of the All Music Guide to Jazz pays homage to McChesney as "a technical monster on the trombone, someone who is so advanced that others merely quake in his path." No wonder he receives such lofty acclaim. McChesney can be heard on CDs with everyone from Ray Charles to Rod Stewart and Natalie Cole to Diana Krall. His television credits range from The Simpsons to Futurama while his film credits meander from Mystic River to Space Jam. In his review, Tom Smith says it all: "there are times when hearing him is like hearing the trombone for thefirst time."
