Album lore

Steve Davis’s 2025 release Boom Goes the Dynamite arrives on his own imprint, presenting five tracks that lean into contemporary jazz with the trombone front and center. Recorded and issued under his name, the album includes pieces like “Radio” and “Hometown Throwdown,” signaling a personal investment in the material. The record’s modest footprint—just five cuts—invites close attention to Davis’s phrasing and the ensemble’s interplay.With scant external documentation beyond a handful of listeners, Boom Goes the Dynamite remains a quiet artifact in the jazz trombone lineage. Its limited circulation suggests a private pressing or small-batch release, a signal to crate-diggers who prize the intimate over the expansive. Those who unearth it will find a snapshot of Davis’s approach to jazz in the mid-2020s, where the brass voice carries both weight and nuance.
