Valve Trombone, Conductor – Rob McConnell. Recorded June, 1978 at Soundstage & JAMF (Toronto, Canada).

Robert Murray Gordon "Rob" McConnell, OC (14 February 1935 – 1 May 2010) was a Canadian jazz trombonist, composer, and arranger. McConnell is best known for establishing and leading the big band The Boss Brass, which he directed from 1967 to 1999. McConnell was born in London, Ontario and took up the valve trombone in high school.

Rob McConnell & the Boss Brass made a second album for the direct-to-disc Umbrella label, a two-LP set that features the band at the top of its game. Aside from Ian McDougall's Pellet Suite, all of the arrangements are by the leader. The ballads are especially noteworthy, particularly the subdued, lush setting of "I Hear a Rhapsody" and "My Ship. They have plenty of bop chops as well, featuring trumpeter Sam Noto and alto saxophonist Moe Kaufman in "Confirmation.

Rob McConnell assembled the original Boss Brass from Toronto’s finest studio musicians. The instrumentation of the The Boss Brass was originally sixteen pieces, consisting of trumpets, trombones, french horns and a rhythm section, but no saxophones (woodwinds). McConnell introduced a sax section in 1970, and expanded the trumpet section to include a fifth trumpet player in 1976, bringing the total to 22 members.
