Background

Musical Bones is almost single mindedly focused on Vin Gordon's extraordinary and emotive trombone playing throughout, with the Upsetters providing the rock solid reggae foundation that allowed Gordon to strut his jazzy improvisatory stuff on. Lee Perry played it very straight as a producer here, his wide and unorthodox production tendencies are fully in check.
