February 23, 2009
Check out Clifton's new CD Decade!!
“Anderson himself is positively inspired, playing ultimately clean, brash, sophisticated lines of melody that are simple, thoughtful, and profound.
Decade is one of the better trombone-led jazz entries in the 2000s.”
Michael G. Nastos - AllMusic.com
“The music on Decade is loose enough to resemble a small
band jam session from the early 60’s and it swings with unabashed joy. Plus, Anderson makes the trombone sound cool again.”
Nick Bewsey - ICON Magazine
“The trombonist has just released Decade, his second album as a leader in more than a decade, and the result is impressive.”
Marc Myers - JAZZ WAX / ALL ABOUT JAZZ
“This one’s an absolute joy. Anderson has a gorgeous warm chestnut tone, and he’s adept both at gentle ballads or supercharged boppers. A truly great mainstream hard bop delight.”
George W. Harris - Jazz Weekly
“Decade comes across as an extended family affair; soulful, lyrical, buoyant and impassioned by turns. Anderson is in fine form throughout, combining an expressive tone with characteristic harmonic and rhythmic agility.”
Mike Joyce - JazzTimes Magazine
