Jazz
Al Grey: slide and marching trombones
Clark Terry: trumpet and flugelhorn, Jon Hendricks: vocal (Save The Grease), Norman Simmons: piano, Joe Cohn: guitar, Virginia Mayhew: alto sax, Mike Grey: slide and marching trombone, J.J. Wiggins: bass, Bobby Durham: drums, Don Sickler: trumpet (Save The Grease), Delfeayo Marsalis: trombone (Midnight Creeper)
"Grey, whose trombone was a mainstay of the Count Basie band for almost 20 years, can always be counted on for a certain mischievous and sometimes ribald ebullence. All told, a session that heals with broad humor and grand expression."
--- Owen Cordle - The News and Observer

Al Grey's trademark phrases and often humorous use of the plunger mute long made him quite distinctive. After getting out of the service, he was with the orchestras of Benny Carter (1945-1946), Jimmie Lunceford (1946-1947), Lucky Millinder, and Lionel Hampton (off and on during 1948-1953). Grey was a well-featured soloist with the classic Dizzy Gillespie globetrotting orchestra during 1956-1957 (taking an exciting solo at the 1957 Newport Jazz Festival on a blazing version of "Cool Breeze"). He was with Count Basie's orchestra on three separate occasions (1957-1961, 1964-1966, and 1971-1977), led a band with Billy Mitchell in the early '60s, and had a group with Jimmy Forrest after leaving Basie in 1977. In later years, Grey performed and recorded often with Clark Terry, made a CD with the Statesmen of Jazz, and for a time led a quintet that featured his son Mike Grey on second trombone. Al Grey recorded as a leader for Argo (1959-1964), Tangerine, Black & Blue, Stash, Chiaroscuro, and Capri, and co-led an excellent Pablo date in 1983 with J.J. Johnson. He died of complications from diabetes on March 24, 2000.
