Kenny wheelers "what now"


Anyone else enjoying this cd.The playing is so steller...ecspecially for no overdubs.Even hard believe that there were no 2nd takes,(?)The fact that there are no drums really leans on dave holland(double-bass) and john taylor(keyboards)Who is the tastiest player and never fails to amaze me.Wheeler and Potters horn work is exceptional too.I know not new cd,but very well recorded and a very worthy addition to the pile.(imho)

Some good suggestions here. Another: Eric Vloeimans (trumpet) on the Challenge label, especially Summersault and Umai (the latter with John Taylor, on SACD). And Stanko is a find.
Kenny just has that sweet full tone that has a touch of blue that gets me.Enrico ravas easy livings cool.Right in there with stanko.
Here are three other great Wheeler CD's.
"Gnu High" ECM label
"Angel Song" ECM label
"Flutter by, Butterfly" Soul Note label
Not kennys stuff but Peter erskines series has some serious great playing!(john taylor,Palle danielson,Peter erskine).Recorded beautifully too.
