My latest CD is entitled "Thanks for the Memories" and is available by contacting  me or Tower Records here

or Borders Book Store.   Here is a review from John Clark, from the New Notes Newsletter from January 15th 2004.

"Once again Troy W. Campbell’s beautiful saxophone has graced our jazz scene

with the release by Jim Houck Productions of Troy’s latest CD, The Troy W. Campbell

Quartet’s "Thanks For The Memories". Campbell’s lyrical sax is backed by Jim Houck on

Bass who collaborated with Troy on the well-received Orpheus Jazz’s "Touch of Class" CD,

 Don Durkee on keyboard and Robbie Liebrick on drums. Troy reaches new lyrical highs on

a number of standards such as "Thanks", "Georgia", "Willow Weep for Me", as well as

"Blues in the Closet", "Good Life" and "Body and Soul".  Troy W. Campbell is as fine a

saxophonist as I have ever heard and clearly ranks with Stan Getz and Paul Desmond with

his clear, clean sweet passages and creative touches in this superb CD album."

OTHER REVIEWS BELOW.

"Orpheus, whether they are backing up a singer or playing on their own, is a fine tuned

musical instrument.   Their style of Full Speed Ahead Jazz is a very unique sound.  The group

 gives us a fresh, new brand of jazz that is being widely accepted by its audiences.  Sometime

 you'll hear reminisces of the styles of Getz, Jobim, Kenton and others of that ilk.  Their

delightful tonality is evident in the blends and nuances and subtleties of their craft.

Reinhardt Liebig, on Piano, Jim Houck on Bass, Al Klopfer on Drums, with Troy Campbell

on Saxophone and Flute, gives us a combined talent that only many could wish for.  

Once you've listened to their sounds, I am sure you'll agree this group is a real WINNER!"
