Review: After working as a sideman for 25 years, for his auspicious emergence on this live date, Jay brought together an exciting ensemble to address his melodically intriguing, swinging repertoire. He lets loose on original tunes and seldom heard standards. This troupe imbues their music with drive and nuances that remain vivid beyond the moment of their creation.
