Remembering Slide Hampton
November 24, 2021
This week on Cultural Manifesto we pay tribute to the legendary Indianapolis composer, arranger, and trombonist Slide Hampton. Slide Hampton passed away earlier this week. He was 89 years old. Slide was one of the most accomplished musicians to emerge from the Indianapolis scene. He was a two time Grammy winner, and a recipient of the National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Masters award.
