It’s amazing how these players develop such distinctive sounds. I mean, really everyone has a distinctive sound, but not many who’s sound can be identified so quickly!

My personal favorite. I read somewhere that his approach to articulation is distinct from most jazz players. On top of that, he plays some really unique solo lines that suggest a singular understanding of the harmonic underpinnings of a song.

If you don't know him yet, check him out. He's a legend over here in Europe.
He became 90 on january 1st. |
Ack van Rooyen plays a version of "Round Midnight" on YouTube that is so perfect and yet so heartfelt that it makes me cry. Sadly, he passed away in November of 2021.

Interesting that no one has mentioned Wayne Bergeron. Granted, we probably hear him more than we think with movie scores and stuff and he is trained to blend in when needed, but when I hear him on lead or solo I know instantly.

I am not a specialist in picking individual folks but recently listened to some older Herbie H stuff. When the trumpeter started I immediately thought it was Donald Byrd (and I was right 😜). He has this very dense and compact sound without being bright that for me is a true signature sound.

Talking about modern guys Ambrose & Marquis are the most distinctive voices IMO. Ambrose because of his imaginary command of the horn, Marquis because of his sound.
Other soloists I recognize with one note or two include Tom Harrell, Dave Douglas, Ron Miles, Eddie Henderson, Wallace Roney, Roy, Wynton...
...and of course thoose historic masters mentioned before:
Miles, Chet, Louis, Freddie, Clifford, Lee, Art, Kenny etc...all are absolute landmark in jazz trumept style. Unmissables!

The last few days, for some reason unknown to me, I have thinking of my first Bobby Hackett lp I found through the Columbia record club back about the mid 60's. There was just something about the way he set the relaxed mood with the first note.

I know what you are saying. I have been a long time Bobby Hackett fan. He has such an easy, sometime haunting sound. I always recognized him on the radio. I also love than he never strays far from the melody when he improvises.

Probably the best get to know Clark record (or actually ANY record) is Oscar Petersen trio plus 1 Clark terry. It has brotherhood of man, incoherent blues, and Mack the knife and some other. Awesome record. He’s playing a selmer K-modified, and no trumpet ever sounded better. that’s basically undeniable

My favorite CT album.

Another +1 on this -- probably the best masterclass on CT on a single album, with his flugel playing, plunger playing, harmon playing, trading between trumpet and flugel, and vocals all represented. Just a great album.
