Much Brass


Much Brass is an album by jazz cornetist Nat Adderley released on the Riverside label featuring performances by Adderley's Sextet with Slide Hampton, Wynton Kelly, Sam Jones, Laymon Jackson, and Albert Heath.

Reception

The Allmusic review awarded the album 4 stars.
The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3 stars, stating: "Some interesting arrangements here, presumably largely the work of Hampton, and some delicately interwoven playing which largely belies the bluster implied in the title.... Not immediately identifiable as a 'typical' Nat Adderley record, but a beautiful statement all the same."
