That's a very good point. There's transcriptions of just about every other bone player, but good luck trying to find any of urbie's stuff... maybe because the whole transcription book would have to be written with ledger lines or in tenor/alto clef. ;P

Damn right, Urbie is on the top of my list! I also cant believe no one has ever transcribed his solos.

[Kilgore4sho]

Urbie , in my opinion is the greatest of all time.He proved it on the Umpteen trombones album when he had all of the greats playing with him.He is sound is just butter.

[trombonistry]

Nearly all trombonists acknowledge Urbie as one of the greatest of all time.

[schnieef]

You're right. He's swinging so great.

Thanks for this! There needs to be more clips of Urbie Green, he's killin'!
