{"product_id":"gerald-wilson-big-band-moment-of-truth","title":"Gerald Wilson Big Band – Moment Of Truth","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn in Mississippi, Gerald Wilson spent formative years in Detroit before launching a celebrated career as a trumpeter, composer, arranger, and bandleader. After moving to Los Angeles, Wilson signed with Pacific Jazz and in 1961 began a decade-long run of spectacular recordings including 1962’s Moment of Truth. The action-packed 9-song set (including 7 originals) is a showcase for Wilson’s many strengths as he uses the vibrant colors his dynamic big band to paint a variety of musical scenes including the swaggering blues of the title track, the irrepressible Latin groove of “Viva Tirado,” a fleet-footed version of “Milestones” by Miles Davis, and the evocative textures of “Teri” featuring Joe Pass on guitar. Other notable members of the ensemble include trumpeter Carmell Jones, trombonist Lou Blackburn, alto saxophonist Bud Shank, tenor saxophonist Harold Land, pianist Jack Wilson, and drummer Mel Lewis. - \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/store.bluenote.com\/products\/gerald-wilson-moment-of-truth-blue-note-tone-poet-series-lp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBlue Note\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"380\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/3XUNtYxmNFeuPupygikFAL?utm_source=generator\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width: 49.9368%;\"\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width: 49.9368%;\"\u003e\n\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLabel:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePacific Jazz – B0033487-01, Blue Note – B0033487-01, Pacific Jazz – ST-61, Blue Note – ST-61, Pacific Jazz – Stereo-61, Blue Note – Stereo-61\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeries:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue Note Tone Poet Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, Stereo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReleased:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3rd June 2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGenre:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJazz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStyle:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBig Band, Soul-Jazz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Blue Note Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41781140783262,"sku":"602435732060","price":65.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/products\/Blue-Note_04d790e1-100d-4d4e-b296-cf136fd5e864.jpg?v=1655368541","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/products\/gerald-wilson-big-band-moment-of-truth","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
