Comin' Through is an album by American jazz trumpeter Eddie Henderson recorded in 1977 and released on the Capitol label.[1]
Reception
The Allmusic review by Richard S. Ginell states "In 1977, Eddie Henderson slipped into the clutches of Capitol Records, which didn't have much of a jazz division and predictably didn't know how to showcase its adventurous new trumpeter. First and foremost, they thought they could turn him into a pop/disco star -- and so, that idiot beat turns up on most of the tracks here... the deadliest element here is the mostly mediocre material that Henderson has to work with, and thus, his occasionally lost-sounding horn is largely spent on lost causes".[2]
