Trumpet Ship

Another trumpeter worth your consideration is THOMAS MARRIOTT who has been recording for Origin Records since the mid 1990s. His latest is a March 2016 date titled TRUMPET SHIP [Origin 82789]. Strongly influenced by Miles, five of the eight tunes on this release are originals of uneven quality but of excellent playing. One highlight is "All The Things You Are" that begins with a long intro by Orrin Evans [p] with Marriott slipping in the
back door with the theme. The other members of the quartet are Luques Curtis [b] and Mark Whitfield, Jr. [dms].
