New York Salsaâ¦.Jimmy Bosch, internationally recognized as the leading salsa/world music trombone icon, arrives with his new CD, the Salsa Airplane. âEl Avión De La Salsaâ is taking to the airwaves both nationally and internationally as he returns with his blazing horn and powerful lyrics on this highly anticipated third solo release.

Music critics worldwide refer to Bosch as âthe real deal,â âa powerhouse,â extraordinary,â âmost expressive,â âincredible talent,â etc. As a composer, he is compared to the likes of Ruben Blades for his social content in the lyrics. Considered one of todayâs most important composer/lyricist in Salsa music, his songs are thought provoking, educational, inspiring and socially reflective.

His ability to conquer the rhythmic complexities with his heartfelt and gifted trombone playing styles has placed him in the Royal Court of the music world, covering the Salsa, Latin Jazz and World music genres.

Appearing on over 50 recordings, Bosch has made records and/or toured with the Israel Cachao Lopez, Ruben Blades and Son del Solar, Celia Cruz, Ray Barretto, Willie Colon, Manny Oquendo y Libre, Paquito DâRivera, Oscar De Leon, Jose Alberto âEl Canario,â Marc Anthony, FANIA Allstar, Eddie and Charlie Palmieri, Steve Turre, Incognito, and the list goes on.

Jimmy has been featured as a soloist and/or with the Jimmy Bosch band throughout the world in major venues and festivals including Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, North Sea Jazz (Holland), Tempo Latino (France), Heineken Jazz Festival (Puerto Rico), Montreal Jazz (Canada), Madison Square Garden, Continental Arena, Sidney Festival (Australia), Barranquijazz (Columbia). Bosch is and shall continue to be hailed by international audiences and critics for his magical ability to impart his contagious passion and spirit to the masses both live and in his recordings. His new production is no exception as âEl Avión De La Salsaâ amasses rave reviews.

Born and raised to a Puerto Rican family in 1970, Jimmy is a genuine artist whoâs been performing professionally since age 13, just two years after picking up the trombone. Jimmyâs preceding two solo CDs, âSoneando Trombonâ and âSalsa Duraâ established him as the Ambassador of the Salsa Dura movement. He ignited this movement by combining old school quality salsa arrangements with a modern NY aggressive edge and socially conscious lyrics.

âEl Avión De La Salsaâ demonstrates and solidifies his commitment to keeping it raw and telling it like it is. Boschâs autobiographical song lyrics masterfully portrayed on the 11 tracks, addresses ever day situations and social issues with a frankness that makes him a role model to fans. Co-produced with long time musician and friend, Angel Fernandez, this is a dancerâs dream, with hard driving rhythms combining Mambo, Cha Cha Cha, Descarga, Plena, Guaguanco and more. The title track immediately stimulates a physical reaction to move and dance. Songs with social content include âBarreras Ninguaâ which covers the subject of Cancer, âMedicina No!â which covers the refusal of medicine to treat depression first off and the subject of New York pride, and âMama Y Papaâ which acts as a voice for children speaking out about unconditional love and child abuse. Boschâs music is inspirational. He has a special talent for getting his message across through great arrangements, hard driving rhythms, emphatic solos, swinging montunos and expressive inspirations.

This is a powerful third solo production featuring todayâs best free-style Latin story teller (Sonero) Rey Bayona whoâs able to tackle improvisations with requisite spontaneity and grip listeners with the emotional seriousness of his storytelling.
