The Island of Dr. Trombone is a 2000 jazz album by trombonist Harry Watters.[3][4] Regarding the tropical feel of the album, Watters said that “recording the disc was a therapeutic way of getting through the harshest weeks of sub-freezing temperatures.” The album features several of Watters’ own compositions as well as those by other artists.

The album was recorded in Decatur, Alabama.[5]

Critical reception

Cadence deemed the album "light jazz ... as innocuous as a summer zephyr."[5] AllMusic called the album "a minor classic, an affirmation of the vitality of the jazz trombone, and an entertainingly joyful noise."[2]
