Review

The second of the three-part Soul Gestures in Southern Blue finds Wynton Marsalis at a transitional spot in his career. While his pianist Marcus Roberts had largely found his own style, the trumpeter was still searching and had not yet thrown off the dominant Miles Davis influence, although the playing is fine on this quintet outing (which also features the tenor of Todd Williams, bassist Reginald Veal, and drummer Herlin Riley). ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
