Anthony Wilson, the 31-year-old composer-arranger-guitarist, carved out a distinctive niche in the jazz community with the release of his self-titled debut CD in 1997 and the follow-up Goat Hill Junket in 1998.
Wilson's five-horn charts - full of memorable melodies, propulsive lines and sophisticated orchestration - were a contemporary blend of the good-time feeling of post-war rhythm-and-blues bands led by the likes of Louis Jordan and T-Bone Walker, and the thinking-man's jazz purveyed by Duke Ellington, Gil Evans and Charles Mingus.
The critics were convinced: Wilson's debut, Anthony Wilson, was cited by JazzTimes, Jazziz, The Philadelphia Inquirer and the Boston Herald as one of 1997's ten best.
