Electric bassist Wayman Tisdale is the first and only NBA superstar to successfully transition into a bona fide album-selling, concert-headlining, sessions-clocking, professional jazzman. Tisdale released his first solo album on MoJazz/Motown one year before retiring from the NBA and continues to perform and record today. The Very Best of Wayman Tisdale highlights 11 tracks from his early days as a recording artist with MoJazz/Motown that provided a foundation for all of his music that has come since. Guest artists include Robert Brookins, Kenny Garrett and Brian McKnight. |
