The Blues Progression is perhaps the most prolific chord progression in jazz. In getting started, or developing on Jazz Trombone (and for all musicians!), listening to and perhaps emulating great players that recorded on this chord progression form can greatly enhance your enjoyment and success.
This rich heritage of blues songs dates back to 1914 with the publication of, “St. Louis Blues” by W.C. Handy. The way jazz artists play this progression through the years has certainly evolved in complexity, but at best maintains the soulful quality and spirit of the music. The playlist below includes examples of jazz combo and big band usage through the years. This is by no means exhaustive. It is a small sample that I have enjoyed, and hope you find helpful.
