"We have here an issue of extraordinary importance. The unearthing of Jimmy Cleveland's music is not just an act of justice among so many forgotten jazz musicians. Cleveland has been more than that: he was the most important trombonist of modern jazz (after Jay Jay Johnson) and, a master in his own right. . . . On the original liner notes for one of Cleveland's only four LPs as a leader, Dickie Wells stated that Jimmy was 'one of the best youngsters to ever hold a trombone in his hands'. Wells' opinion was noteworthy."
(Carlos Sampayo in the liner notes)
All of the sessions were recorded in New York City and arranged by Quincy Jones, Ernie Wilkins, Gigi Gryce and Benny Golson.
Total time: 76:39 + 78:40 min
One of the most exciting jazz trombonists of the 1950s, Jimmy Cleveland had a technique equal to that of Bill Watrous (who would not emerge until a decade later), an enthusiastic style that could hold its own with Frank Rosolino, and was the first important new voice on the trombone to emerge after J.J. Johnson. He led four albums during 1955-1959 before disappearing into the world of studio work. With the exception of six isolated selections from the era (including four for Epic), the four records are all of his sessions as a leader and they are reissued in full on this two-CD set. The music on Complete Recordings is drawn from the EmArcy/Mercury catalog. Cleveland is featured with three overlapping octets arranged by Quincy Jones, on two brass-oriented sets that have a prominent role for Don Butterfield's tuba, and an album with trumpeter Art Farmer and tenor saxophonist Benny Golson from 1959 that finds him at the peak of his powers. Other sidemen include trumpeter Ernie Royal, Jerome Richardson on various reeds, tenor saxophonist Lucky Thompson and drummer Max Roach, with arrangements by the likes of Ernie Wilkins, Benny Golson and Gigi Gryce. The music is in the hard bop vein but rarely predictable, with Cleveland getting several showcases that display his impressive virtuosity, along with pieces in which he interacts with his all-star sidemen. This is a highly recommended set that nearly comprises all of the musical legacy of the great Jimmy Cleveland.

Jimmy Cleveland
Active Decades: '50s, '60s, '70s, '80s and '90s
Born: May 03, 1926 in Wartrace, TN
Died: Aug 23, 2008 in Lynwood, CA
Genre: Jazz

One of the finest trombonists to emerge during the 1950s, Jimmy Cleveland has been overlooked since moving to Los Angeles in the late '60s. He started on trombone when he was 16, and his first important job was with Lionel Hampton (1950-1953). After Hampton's European tour of 1953, Cleveland became a busy freelance musician in New York, making many recording sessions (including with Dizzy Gillespie, Gil Evans, Oliver Nelson, Oscar Pettiford, Lucky Thompson, James Moody, and Gerry Mulligan). He toured Europe with Quincy Jones in 1959-1960, and played with Thelonious Monk's 1967 octet, but otherwise stayed in New York until going to the West Coast to play with The Merv Griffin Show's band and to continue recording for Quincy Jones. Jimmy Cleveland remains one of the most technically skilled of the bop-based trombonists, and still appears on an irregular basis in Los Angeles clubs.
