Description
The tiny left-hand jab Wilson slips in right before the horns crack open the opener tells you he likes tension and release. Easterly Winds is Jack Wilson firing in a breezy, blues-schooled post-bop mode, with a brassy front line pushing him into tougher corners. Opening tune swings hard then loosens into a modal vamp, while the side two mid-tempo cut rides a lightly funky groove that never gets muggy. You come for the crisp piano voicings, stay for how the melodies stick. On this LP the space between instruments is wider and the low end sits deeper, so the rhythm section feels grounded and the horns have room to speak. File it on your shelf near Horace Silver’s late Blue Note run, though Wilson shades a little cooler and lets phrases breathe longer. For Melbourne listeners rebuilding a classic jazz section, it fills that gap between soul-jazz comfort and modernist bite. If you prefer to order from home, you can buy Jack Wilson records online with us. Give the opener a spin, then flip for the ballad on side two, where the piano comping is all economy and warmth. Sleeve art reproduces cleanly and looks sharp in a fresh outer. Buy Jack Wilson records online today or visit us in Preston to grab a copy.
