DESCRIPTION:
Tribute to the late Dwayne Burno

Dwayne Burno was one of the most important voices of his generation and an integral part of many of the finest bands we have heard in the past decade or two. He also performed and recorded with Roy Haynes, Barry Harris, Herbie Hancock, Freddie Hubbard, Joe Henderson, Cedar Walton, Joe Chambers, Wynton Marsalis, Joshua Redman, Roy Hargrove, Digable Planets, Chucho Valdes, Abbey Lincoln, David Murray, and Nicholas Payton among many others. This, unfortunately, was his last record date and we wanted to pay tribute to this unique talent by discussing the important role he played on this and many other projects.
