Recorded using Sam First’s state-of-the-art analog to digital recording setup, carefully mixed in-house and then mastered by Bernie Grundman. The music is then pressed onto two 180-gram vinyl LPs and packaged in poly-lined paper sleeves with protective lining. Jacket is thick stock ( 24pt ) gatefold displaying a full-bleed print of the vibrant cover photo taken by Sam First Records owner, Paul Solomon, as well as photos from the recording session by Brian Bixby. Edition of 1,000, each copy displaying its own unique foil-stamped number.

Anthony Wilson has cultivated a diverse body of work shaped by long-standing collaborations with jazz greats like John Clayton, Diana Krall, and Charles Lloyd, as well as by the deep musical influence of his father, legendary bandleader Gerald Wilson. With his nonet, Wilson crafts lush, harmonically sophisticated arrangements with a reverence for jazz and blues tradition, that balance intricate ensemble interplay while spotlighting his nuanced compositional voice and the expressive artistry of the elite improvisers that comprise his ensemble.
