The Bob James Trio Experience
The year was 1962, and Bob James was a 22 year old college student. That was the year that his trio won the Collegiate Jazz Festival, and recorded his first album, BOLD CONCEPTIONS, as the Bob James Trio.
Now, 56 years later, Bob James is leader of another red, hot trio, this time featuring Billy Kilson on drums, and Michael Palazzolo on bass. The trio hit the studio, and has created one of the hottest jazz albums of the year. Now, the trio is taking this blazing new album to the people. Be one of the first to experience the sensational Bob James Trio this February!

The Bob James Trio in the Studio
It has been over 10 years since the last Bob James Solo album, but that is about to change. Recording recently at Stagg Street Studio in Van Nuys, California with Billy Kilson and Michael Palazzolo, there seems to be something special brewing here.
Joining in on production are long time collaborators Ken Freeman, a master engineer, and Sonny Abelardo. Abelardo has been James’s manager for years, and is working more intricately on this project, co-producing along with James.
This is a sneak peak into the making of something special.
