Fantasy in D


A later recording of Cedar Walton's "Fantasy in D." Fans of Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers might remember it as "Ugetsu." This 1977 recording, featuring one of my favorite drummers, Billy Higgins, speeds up the tempo and takes the flight into fantasy into new directions. Bob Berg's tenor sax is on fire, perfectly matching the quickened tempo of this live recording.
