 | | Includes liner notes by Alain Gerber.WANTON SPIRIT was nominated for a 1996 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Performance, Individual Or Group. |
 | | "Take The Coltrane" was nominated for a Grammy for Best Jazz Instrumental Solo.Barron's gifts as a modern pianist are so formidable--great rhythmic drive and flexibility, a variety of inflections, exceptional harmonic intuition--that he is able to fit into any number of situations without imposing his will. |
 | | Sometimes he is self-effacing to a fault, but WANTON SPIRIT reasserts Barron's place in the pantheon of post-modernists, a pianist comfortable in any style, almost incapable of playing cliches.And from Roy Haynes' first chatty snare accents, to the indomitable spirit of Charlie Haden's eight-note song, it's apparent that Kenny Barron's antennae are way up. |
