Reviews:
“Anthony Wilson is a superior straight-ahead guitarist who is also a very talented arranger-composer. His nonet plays in the Los Angeles area, performing his arrangements and mostly Wilson's compositions. Filled with some of Southern California's best and most versatile musicians, the Anthony Wilson Nonet interprets his colorful and atmospheric charts flawlessly. On Power of Nine there is a four-part suite ("Quadra") which has guest mandolinist Eva Scow interacting with Wilson's guitar on two of the sections. That moody work, dedicated to Brazil, has its intriguing moments but some of the other individual pieces are actually the high points. An infectious version of Duke Pearson's "Make It Good," Diana Krall's guest vocal on a nostalgic waltz by Jimmy Rowles ("Looking Back"), a stirring tenor solo by Matt Otto on "Amalgamation," the jubilant "Melatonin Dream" and the gradual building up of passion on "Hymn" are memorable. In addition there is a "hidden" twelfth selection, a Monk-ish "Bird in a Basket" which has an intense baritone solo by Adam Schroeder. Other solo stars along the way include trumpeter Gilbert Castellanos, and pianist Donald Vega. Recommended.” AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow
"Diana Krall lends a breathy vocal to Cheryl Ernst/Jimmy Rowles ' "Looking Back," a wistful remembrance of childhood... For a nonet, it's amazing how well the instruments lay out on the soundstage, uncluttered but vibrant, with the intimacy of a house concert... [the] deluxe, 180-gram, 45rpm double-LP set further opens the soundstage and showcases the players with an even greater clarity." - The Absolute Sound, December 2006
"Engineer (Michael C.) Ross’s pickup of drummer Mark Ferber’s snare drum on ‘Melatonin Dream’ will blow your cookies! As for the rest of the sound of this record, it is easily the best sounding record of Ross’s Groove Note records, possessing a transparency, three dimensionality and harmonic fullness his previous efforts, excellent as they were, cannot match... A super record on all counts: atmospheric, evocative, richly drawn and emotionally complete. You couldnt ask for more... Highest recommendation!" - Michael Fremer, www.musicangle.com
"Anthony Wilson's Power of Nine has a very even and enjoyable flow and coming from Sunset Sound Studios means the sound quality is excellent. ...The playing is all top shell with the compositions and arrangements being extremely inventive and thematic in nature." - www.jazzreview.com
"The 45 rpm sides of the vinyl give you ‘Melatonin Dream’ on Side C, followed by the absolutely gorgeous long-form ballad titled simply ‘Hymn’. I’m not sure which of the saxists has the main solo here, but its surpassingly lovely. On Side D is the title tune, followed by a repeat of the Diana Krall vocal, but this time at 45 rpm for comparison. What I hear is a step up in the audio reproduction from even the SACD, with more depth and feeling that you are in the room with the musicians rather than just listening to a recording. Even though the grooves get rather close to the label, my comparisons showed no degradation on the vinyl vs. the SACD as it approach the conclusion of each side." - John Sunier, Audiophile Audition
