About this album
The Eminent Jay Jay Johnson Volume 2 is a landmark 1956 bop compilation that captures J.J. Johnson at his most fluent and inventive. One of the defining trombonists of modern jazz, Johnson helped prove the instrument could move with the speed, precision and harmonic sophistication of the best bebop soloists. Built from classic mid-1950s studio sides, the collection shows his crisp tone and clean phrasing working across hard-swinging originals and standards alike, with a band that keeps the momentum taut and focused. It remains an important document of Johnson’s influence on post-war jazz and the evolution of the modern trombone voice.
