“Tyree, to me, is a very beautiful trombone player. He plays real good legit trombone, and when he applied the plunger to it his tone remained very precise and clean, so that you were tempted to like it better than Tricky’s because it was so clean. But then, Tricky’s was so plaintive. Tyree is a very agile-minded musician and he always wants to do a lot of things….[H]e is one of the most effective plunger trombones I have ever heard.”
