Abe Lincoln (musician)

Abe Lincoln (March 29, 1907-June 8, 2000) was an American Dixieland jazz trombonist.

Lincoln began playing trombone at age five, and worked professionally from the early 1920s. In the 1920s and 1930s he spent time playing with Adrian Rollini's California Ramblers (and was the replacement trombonist for Tommy Dorsey), as well as with Arthur Lange, Ace Brigode, Roger Wolfe Kahn, Paul Whiteman, and Ozzie Nelson. Later in the 1930s and into the 1940s he did mostly work in Los Angeles studios as a sideman. During the Dixieland revival of the 1950s his career saw a resurgence, playing with Wingy Manone, the Rampart Street Paraders, Red Nichols, Bob Scobey, Pete Fountain, and Matty Matlock. He recorded with Wild Bill Davison and did freelance work into the 1970s, though he went into semi-retirement by the 1980s. He never led his own recording session, though he recorded copiously as a sideman.
