Definitely not a ballads CD. Thoroughly 2000s jazz with a hip-hop, kind of, element, via spoken word artist Malachi, but wrapped around a lot of just stellar saxophone playing. Try Subway Suite 2nd Movement on for size with Jon Cowherd's piano a bonus and Mike Moreno standing out on guitar, too.
On Prospectus, I'm thinking, Who's in there, Sonny, Trane, Wayne Shorter, Branford Marsalis? And then I think, He doesn't sound like anybody, just himself, and damn good at it, too. That he did this live is even more amazing. Look, Marcus Strickland is just an incredible sax dude. Scintillating.
