Description

There's nothing small about Sammie "Big Sam" Williams. Besides the bruising heft of the man himself, the giant notes he blows on his trombone are practically visible as they leave the horn. As a member of the New Orleans ensemble Dirty Dozen Brass Band, it's no wonder that a man like Williams can command a room to dance. What's slightly subtler is his ability to handpick a band. With Funky Nation, Big Sam has assembled an in-your-face cross-section of the Big Easy's myriad styles, fusing them together around a message of big-time fun. - Curtis Cartier sanjose.com
