Roy Eldridge
Pittsburgh USA. 1911/ N. York, 1989
Trumpet.

Eldridge excelled in his own right in "big swing orchestras”. G.Krupa, F. Henderson, A.Shaw, C.Basie, B.Goodman, saw his talent unfold. His "modern" style based on simplicity and power turned him into a model for trumpet players of bebop. His influence in musicians like Dizzy or Miles, says everything. BUY
