5 out of 5 stars TREMENDOUS TROMBONE SOUND FROM THE 50'S.......2007-03-23

J J JOHNSON AND KAI WINDING TAKE POP SONGS AND PLAY THEM FIRST AS WRITTEN THEN DO A JAZZED UP VERSION. THIS ALBUM(NOW A CD) WAS ONLY PRODUCED IN 54-55. IT WAS IMMENSELY POPULAR THEN. AS FAR AS I KNOW, THEY THEN WENT THEIR SEPARATE WAYS, NEVER TO WORK TOGETHER AGAIN. TOO BAD.

5 out of 5 stars The Great Kai & J. J........2006-11-11

The Great Kai & J. J. work is one of the best works ever for jazz enthusiasts, specifically for trombone sound lovers. The clear and melodic playing of both musicians during their solo makes it some of the best study material for any trombone player.
For this session, standards such as "Georgia on my Mind" have been arranged magnificently without the songs losing their original bluesy feeling.

5 out of 5 stars They are the greatest.......2006-07-14

I was so happy to discover this re-mastered CD. I had the original on a vinyl disk, and literally wore it out. J.J. & Kai work so well together that one just has to sit back and either tap one's foot or sway with the sounds. The selection of music on this album just amplifies their talents, and those of the back-up musicians. Well worth the purchase.

4 out of 5 stars Trombone treats.......2006-03-16

The CD 'The great Kai and JJ is definitely worth including in the collection of those who are into jazz trombone. The variety of tracks enhances the listening enjoyment and the reproduction quality is excellent.

5 out of 5 stars Oh My God.........they don't make music like these guys anymore........2005-11-21

I have a couple other CDs of the two of them but this is just fabulous!!! Can't believe I haven't heard it before. They also do a couple of numbers with "Dave Brubeck at Newport"........this is toooo much!!!

    5 out of 5 stars The furious fusion of Garaj Mahal.......2005-10-19

    Garaj has been blessing my brain for some time now. What makes them so great? The parts; Fareed Haque on guitar is blazingly fast but always has swing, Kai Eckhardt on the bottom with the fattest tone, Alan Hertz with his supple and elastic drums that can snap a song into pure greatness, Eric Levy on keys, soulful.
    But the whole is more than the sum; Garaj Mahal has a furiousness to their playing that brings to mind an express train. Their sound can dominate the synapses like no other band.

    5 out of 5 stars A perfect enthno-jazz CD.......2003-12-10

    The talents of Garaj mahal are enough to entertain anyone who enjoys the funkier variations of jazz, but this CD features a very special guest: Zakir Hussain on tablas! He adds such a mystical, trancendental quality to the complex rhythms of the band. The best things about electric jazz and global percussion are found on this disc!!!
