O’s Notes: Veteran jazz trombonist Steve Turre invites fellow ‘bonists Frank Lacy, Robin Eubanks, and Steve Davis to join him on the front line as well as writing and arranging the music on The Bones Of Art. All of these trombonists are fellow alumni of Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers. Blakey’s characteristic hot bop lives here and shines across a wide range of tempos. The rhythm section is not too shabby with Peter Washington (b), Xavier Davis (p) and Willie Jones III (d) helping Steve produce another winning session.
