Anthony Wilson - Arranger, Transcription
Anthony Wilson is a gifted guitarist, composer and arranger and winner of the BMI/Thelonious Monk Composers Competition. He also happens to be the son of big band legend Gerald Wilson. On this debut album (nominated for a Grammy for Best Large-Ensemble Jazz Album), the younger Wilson proves he is a fresh and original voice on the jazz scene, as he leads his nine-piece band through a collection of imaginative originals and innovative arrangements on jazz standards. Bill Holman calls the CD "inventive and daring" and Ben Sidran hails it as "an instant classic!"
This was a very impressive debut by guitarist Anthony Wilson, the son of veteran bandleader Gerald Wilson. Anthony, who had won the Thelonious Monk competition for best composition ("Karaoke," which is included on this set), is a fine bop-based guitarist who is a particularly inventive composer/arranger. Seven of the ten selections on this disc are his, as are all of the arrangements other than Lucky Thompson's "The Parisian Knights," which was transcribed by Wilson from the original record. His charts utilize such top L.A.-based players as trumpeter Carl Saunders, trombonist Ira Nepus, Louis Taylor on various reeds, tenorman Pete Christlieb, baritonist Jack Nimitz, pianist Brad Mehldau, bassist Danton Boller and drummer Willie Jones III. Bennie Wallace takes a guest tenor solo on "Southern Gentleman." The solo stars are Christlieb, Saunders and Wilson, and overall, this is a highly enjoyable effort, a strong start to Anthony Wilson's career. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |
