Hi everyone,
I heard that Bill died last night. What a wonderful trombone player he was. Just thought I’d share.
Much love,
Dylan

Re: Bill Watrous is gone...
I always thought this was great. Worked on my slides. Bill Watrous explains how to make his trombone slides super-slick...

Re: Bill Watrous is gone...
Bill Watrous performed with The U.S. Coast Guard's jazz ensemble, The Cutters, in 1976. Here is a playlist with the entire "Watrous" concert. There are 4 tunes with just jazz ensemble, and Watrous joins us for the other 7. (If you just want to hear his tunes, look for his name somewhere in the title.)

Re: Bill Watrous is gone...
One of my favorite jazz recordings was the BIll Watrous - Carl Fontana duet record put out many years ago. I remember seeing it in a music store. It was $17 (an astronomical price for an LP at the time) and all the text was in Japanese. I recognized two things. The names of the players and their picture. I snatched it up. I think I loaned it to a friend and never saw it again. Sadly it is no longer in print and was never put out on CD or mp3. Good stuff!
