  1. Walter Smith III - Twio

    Having enjoyed a lot of Smith's output, including his sequel to this 2018 LP "Twio Vol. 2" (mas.to/@dnanian/11620187565471), I figured it was worth the time to try to run this down on LP.

    Achievement unlocked!

    This collection of standards (+ 1 original) played by some modern greats (including Smith himself) - McBride (bass), Redman (tenor)...not to mention Harsh Ragavan (bass), and Eric Harland (drums).

  6. Walter Smith III - Twio Vol. 2

    I've featured Smith a few times here, and this is his latest—a continuation of 2018's Twio (out on Whirlwind, long sold out on vinyl, but you can get it digitally on Bandcamp).

    The idea being: get together great players, grab some classic tunes, and go—a few takes per.

    Here we have Smith (tenor) with Joe Sanders (bass) and Kendrick Scott (drums)...but half the tracks have Ron Carter (bass) and Brandon Marsalis (tenor).

  11. Ambrose Akinmusire, When the Heart Emerges Glistening, 2011 on Blue Note

    Akinmusire is an avant-garde jazz trumpeter from Oakland by way of the Manhattan School of Music, USC, and the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz in LA. This was his second album (first on Blue Note) with Walter Smith III on sax, Gerald Clayton on piano, Harish Raghavan on bass, and Justin Brown on drums.

    “My Name is Oscar” is a spoken word piece with drums (or maybe it is a drum piece with spoken word interlude) about the shooting of Oscar Grant III at Fruitvale Station in 2009 – also the subject of Ryan Coogler’s film Fruitvale Station from 2013.

    My copy is actually from the Vinyl Me Please Anthology The Story of Blue Note Records, second edition, on which it stands in for Blue Note’s “modern” era. Wonderful record I might not have heard outside the context of the anthology but I’m very happy to have.

  12. Walter Smith III - three of us are from Houston and Reuben is not

    Smith (sax) along with Jason Moran (piano), Reuben Rogers (bass) and Eric Harland (drums), with a disc that runs the gamut from tight, groove-based tracks to a speed-run drag race with Moran.
