Oyez, Oyez!!
Wynton Marsalis Septet -- IN THIS HOUSE, ON THIS MORNING
Could have been named 'in church in Nawlins'. The music takes you through an entire service. Said 'home' to me.
Is it a stretch to say that Wynton is the Ellington of this era? I don't think so. His talent runs deeper than just Jazz. His can write music that 'depicts', in your mind, things, places and moods. Not just any player can do that.
You will love this Jazz CD. Esp, if you have ever set foot in a Southern Church.
What about my man, Wycliffe Gordon!! He is the trombone player, and he is great. I remember him from the Blues CD with Wynton & Clapton.
This is a 2 CD set. I listened to both in one sitting. For me that's saying a lot. I get bored easily with music that does not connect with me.
Guest appearance by the Gospel Great, Marion Williams.
If you like good Jazz music, you gotta have it. One of Wynton's best. He could be the most under-rated and under-appreciated Jazz player ever.
Give it a listen!
Cheers
