Back on the Scene (album)

Back on the Scene is an album by American trombonist Bennie Green recorded in 1958 and released on the Blue Note label.

Reception
The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 3 stars and stated "It's evident from the opening pair of Latin-flavored performances that Back on the Scene is one of Bennie Green's most diverse efforts. Green's warm, supple tone and fondness for swinging, bop-influenced mainstream jazz and jump blues hasn't disappeared; he's just found new facets in his style... Even with this vast array of styles, Back on the Scene retains all the good-natured spirit and humor of his earlier Prestige albums".
