Compton’s Finest, -he debut recording from drummer Brandon Sanders, is a fine out-of the-gate date, featuring plenty of room for pianist Keith Brown, tenor saxophonist Chris Lewis, vibraphonist Warren Wolf and bassist Eric Wheeler to bring their one-for-all attitude. There are some tunes you’ll know, some originals and two guest spots for vocalist Jazzmeia Horn to explore on works by Stevie Wonder and Duke Ellington.
From Monday, October 30 through Friday, November 3, one cut from the Compton’s Finest album will be featured each morning on the New Day, New Play spotlight on my Daybreak show.
Preview “Voyage” from Compton’s Finest, above.
