Got to meet him and shake his hand many years ago in Houston when his was with SuperSax. What a great night and his solos were awesome. He overheard me talking about him on one of their breaks and then he tapped me on the shoulder and said "thanks man!". That's the Frank that I remember.
I think of him as having an illness and it took over. We can only guess what we could have done. We must think only of the man and his music. When I met him I thought he was great and that is how I want to remember him. At that time we didn;t have the medicine and help that we do now. Let him rest in peace. Carole Paul
His playing was genius, he was always smiling but his eyes were not smiling when you looked at him. He ran deep! His music was incredible. Worked on a band with him and other greats. I saw him that night at Donte's with a group of friends. Went to the services for him. His one son also died and the other lived with problems. The entire thing is so sad and to dwell upon it means we don't pay more attention to his wonderful musical talent and genius. RIP, Frank. Carl Fontana and I discussed Frank's demise back in the 1980's and Carl had his own theory about what happened which I will not speak of but many people felt there was something suspicious about the entire situation. I miss his playing and that of many other great musicians who have gone from this world.
Just like the person who is always frowning, I am equally concerned with the person who is always laughing, smiling and being self-deprecating in general and for no particular reason. That said, I read some time ago that there was most definitely something suspicious going on as well in regards to Frank and his family members.
Frank rosolino conseguiu dar asas a sua imaginação através do trombone de vara. Sua técnica era muito apurada, sempre se comunicando com a banda. Ele passava tudo que viveu nos seus solos.
THE MASTER.funny how genius and tradgedy run hand in hand.like frank an parker chet bill evans and so many more.fortunatley they left us all this fabulous music which has enriched all our lives.r.i.p. all.thanks RR
FRANK ROSSOLINO EL MAS GRANDE EN EL TROMBON DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS, ADEMAS ES EL PRIONERO EN EL DOMINIO DE LA TECNICA PERFECTA AL TOCAR ESTE DIFICIL INSTRUMENTO...
whoa.we all know about the tragedy but lets get on with the music guys.thes uploaders are doin a great job.frank was THE man we all agree on that for sure.happy listening and many thanks..
@blasticore im not dwelling on his death. i play trombone and listen to frank as an inspiration to my playing and in that way am carrying on his stlye, or attempting to, and celebrating his life. i know he was a great trombone player, in my opinion the greatest, and i celebrate that through listening and playing his music. but do you think the people who party at jim morrisons grave go there and say, thinking of this guy makes me want to abuse heroine to death? its the respect of the musician
Im almost 99% he played a king 2b or 3b. However I know for a fact urbie green played a martin committe most of his life, so that may be who your thinking of. However like i said idk for sure, he just may have played a martin
Frank never played a King. He main were a Conn 6H and a custom Olds. Urbie Green played a 2B most of his career until he created his own trombone. The Martin "Urbie Green" model
bone9ful...in retrospect a poor choice of words. From what I read he was depressed over his failed relationship (and wife's suicide) and the falling out of favor of jazz (from the mainstream). Sad that this kind of talent was so underappreciated.
@blasticore no....you have no respect for great musicians, do you? look on all other videos about frank, or kurt cobain, or anyone that has had a tragic death. its not a joking matter
A musical genius on a whole other level. Never heard a
solo of his I didn't think was phenomenal!

His sound is simply a poetry! His soul will alive forever and “slide” on air !
this version stands as a trombone masterpiece! we are lucky it survived!!
his body left us in 1978, but his soul lives on!

Very very sad. :/ Love that late album he did with Conte Condoli, "Conversations." Saw him in a jazz club in Dallas in the late '70's. Amazing!
I think it was major Depression. He could be helped to overcome it. A real tragedy
@@Alino17 yeah, in the 70s nobody took that seriously. Incredibly sad.
I saw him once back in 53 or 54 at the Lighthouse in Hermosa Beach. Great! At the time I was a Milt Bernhart fan on trombone.
Wonderful music - RIP Frank
It's awe inspiring to hear him play
Frank Rosolino el más grande de todos lis trombonistas en la historia del Jazz!!
Estoy de acuerdo. El trombonista más virtuoso de todos los tiempos
Very nice. He's my trombone hero.
Wonderful. A tragic great artist. When you can play a standard as this you master the classic Art of the ballad.
A very said man, but a great Artist as you can hear !

Fantastica!!!!♡♡♡♡♡♡
有り余るアイディア、テクニック、そして歌心、ジャズトロンボーンの可能性を大きく広げてくれた偉大なミュージシャンである。
Like with all the jazz greats - you can play it differently, but you can't play it better!
What chops, technique, taste and soul. Love the guy ... ♥
What WOULD it have taken to save him? I often wish I could have... :(
If someone is delusional, it is impossible to communicate with reason with them.
its all been said about frank he was a fabulous player the best many thanks
Gracias Renato por subir tremendo tema !
Classe totale....
maravilhoso, e é tao bom lembrar no baixo o grande ZE ALVES!!! ZE BICÃO!!! CONTRABAIXO!!!
Zé Bicão no piano e Mathias Matos no baixo
My man. Rosolino busts the mercury right out of my bone-o-meter....
Frank was the greatest! Hij was de grootste!
Brewepau, I too heard Frank and Carl in Dallas that weekend. Turned my head around.
What a loss.
It appears I've fallen in love with you, Lover Man :)
whoa.we all know about the tragedy but lets get on with the music guys.thes uploaders are doin a great job.frank was THE man we all agree on that for sure.happy listening and many thanks..

Alguém 2023?
and, saddest of all, his killing his son. reminds me of the tragic, Greek, heroes...always had a fatal flaw.
killer licks, killer chops
one more Frank!!!
@blasticore you dont joke about a great man who was troubled and murdered one person, scarred another for life, and ended his own legacy.
el hombre!
@brewepau I didn't mean to turn it down. I just slipped. I would like to change to green .
One of the most recent video's I have seen of my uncle before his death.
I think he played conn 6h
❤
What horn did he play on?
Martin. What I've heard al least. More info on this anyone?
Im almost 99% he played a king 2b or 3b. However I know for a fact urbie green played a martin committe most of his life, so that may be who your thinking of. However like i said idk for sure, he just may have played a martin
They say Conn 6H
Frank never played a King. He main were a Conn 6H and a custom Olds. Urbie Green played a 2B most of his career until he created his own trombone. The Martin "Urbie Green" model
i really hope you're not inferring anything by your comment
he didn´t kill his son.
Okay
carl fontana
These guys were my inspiration for trombone technique and soul interpretation,a life's work.
Sue raney
@blasticore he didnt kill his wife....besides that fact your comment makes me sick
bone9ful...in retrospect a poor choice of words. From what I read he was depressed over his failed relationship (and wife's suicide) and the falling out of favor of jazz (from the mainstream). Sad that this kind of talent was so underappreciated.
