Gerald Wilson Orchestra 'New York, New Sound" - SACD
$14.98
MAC 1019
SUPER AUDIO COMPACT DISC
For this album, the only non-laid back resident of L.A. was in a New York state of mind, and came up with a session that sounds like it was written by a cat half his age. Between the jet-propelled bookends of "Milestones" and "Nancy Jo", are outstanding examples of Gerald's thick-textured wide voicings providing plenty of stretch-out room for such stellar soloists as Jimmy Owens, Trumpet; Luis Bonilla, Trombone; Jesse Davis, Alto Sax; Jimmy Heath, Tenor Sax; and Kenny Barron, Piano.
