Jack Jenney & His Orchestra Trombone Solo On Stardust

[levittlegacy]

Jack Jenney was a hell of a trombone player. I am a trombonist as was my grandfather who actually taught Henry Singer. Henry was one of the trombonists on this track. I have a pic that Henry gave my grandfather somewhere w his autograph. I believe the picture is of this band. Thanks for posting!!!!

Beautiful warm playing from Jack. The master.

What kind of horn did he play?

[CCJazzmen2]

He did at some point play a Martin trombone, can someone out there, confirm that...

Thanks for the interest.

@CCJazzmen2

Thanks for the info. Looks like a Martin in the pic.

I would love to have that tone. Probably takes more than just getting the same kind of horn tho:P

@CCJazzmen2 He played a Martin Committee, and flawlessly!

Jack Jenney had a son name John Jenney. He had 6 kids and my mom was one of them. I think Jack Jenney only had the one child.

Beautiful playing as usual from Jack...so inspirational..!

His playing was dubbed the sexiest trombone in pop music. Moonglow, was proof enough.
