Cabbagetown Blues is an original work for six Trombones & Rhythm Section (Piano/Guitar, Bass and Drums) written by Wesley Hanson. While studying with Emory Remington at the Eastman School, Wes would travel to Toronto to visit the city. On one visit in the early 70's he heard the famous Boss Brass. Ian McDougall's brilliant playing made such an impression on Wes that he promised himself he would write a work for him. While Professor of Trombone at Ball State University, Wes invited Ian to come for a Clinic/Concert and composed this work for him to perform. This work of about six minutes in length is for advanced performers and has improvised solos for 1st Trombone and Bass Trombone. The good old Blues never had it so good.
