Jessica Williams – Orgonomic Music (Clean Cuts/CD Baby, 1981)

Jessica Williams (p); Eddie Henderson (tr, flgn); Jim Grantham (ts); Henry Robinette (g); Kim Stone (b); Richard Saunders (b); Dave Tucker (d)

Recorded in June 1979


Jessica Williams is most known for her trio and solo recordings, but this LP features a larger ensemble.  Despite some excellent soloing -- from Williams and Eddie Henderson, in particular -- the most impactful aspects of the music are the ensemble passages. 

Originally released on the tiny (and now defunct) Clean Cuts label, Williams has reissued the music via CD Baby.

  1. I'm a big Jessica Wiliams fan and own most of her albums. I like this one a lot because it's unlike anything else she recorded. Great compositions and playing.
