This Side Up marks the third release in the MaxJazz label's Piano series and the first release in 2002. Previous releases in the series include Peter Martin's Something Unexpected and Bruce Barth's East & West. Jessica Williams composed all of the songs for this program and builds the excitement level from track to track with tributes to some of her major influences. Included is "Miles to Go" for Miles Davis -- a mid-tempo bebop piece that showcases her brilliant arpeggios and multi-layered sound with drummer Victor Lewis and bassist Ray Drummond. She reconnects with Dexter Gordon on "I Remember Dexter" and honors bassist Milt Hinton on "The Judge." Top pick is "Innocence" for its quiet solitude and beauty -- the perfect song for just relaxing and listening to jazz from an intelligent and spiritual perspective. Jessica Williams re-creates a buzz of interest in the world of young adults with this effective recording, and since her formidable reputation among her peers is rock solid, Williams' diverse repertoire should not remain a strange concept as a result of her inclusion in this remarkable Piano series. ~ Paula Edelstein, All Music Guide



Jessica Williams

Active Decades: '70s, '80s, '90s and '00s
Born: Mar 17, 1948 in Baltimore, MD
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Post-Bop

Due to her being based in northern California, Jessica Williams is a bit underrated, but (on evidence of her sets for Jazz Focus and Hep) she is one of the top jazz pianists of today. Williams is a powerful virtuoso whose complete control of the keyboard, wit, solid sense of swing, and the influence of Thelonious Monk have combined to make her a particularly notable player. She started taking piano lessons when she was four and was gigging as a teenager. Williams took extensive classical lessons but also gigged with Philly Joe Jones in Philadelphia before moving to San Francisco in 1977. She was the house pianist at Keystone Korner for a time and made a few interesting recordings (some as Jessica Jennifer Williams) during the period, sometimes utilizing electronics. Although she appeared on Charlie Rouse's final record and gigged steadily, Williams was largely off record (outside of her own private Quanta label) until re-emerging in the late '80s as a brilliant solo acoustic player. She is a giant whose many dates for Jazz Focus (five of its first ten releases feature Williams) and Hep are consistently brilliant.
