Back In The Mix

Dan Wilensky's Back In The Mix features Mark Soskin (piano), Dean Johnson (bass), Tony Moreno (drums), and special guest Russ Johnson (trumpet) in a musical tour de force. Wilensky's 4th recording as a leader includes new arrangements of Cole Porter's Falling In Love With Love, Gross and Lawrence's Tenderly, Lament by the great J.J. Johnson, and 6 new Wilensky originals. The creative virtuosity of long-time band mates Dean Johnson and Tony Moreno propel the group to greater heights. Russ Johnson, recently featured in Lee Konitz's band, and Mark Soskin, a longtime member of Sonny Rollins' group, are simply superb. Check out this group in action in the video for 'Kenai' on YouTube.
