Back Again (Bob Brookmeyer album)

Back Again is an album released by American jazz trombonist Bob Brookmeyer featuring tracks recorded in 1978 and originally released on the Sonet label.

Reception

Scott Yanow of AllMusic stated: "This session was valve trombonist Bob Brookmeyer's first jazz date in 13 years after a period writing for the studios and then away from music altogether. Brookmeyer, who is featured in a quintet with cornetist Thad Jones, pianist Jimmy Rowles, bassist George Mraz and drummer Mel Lewis, proves to still be in prime form playing in an unchanged style".
