Duke Pearson’s great 1964 album Wahoo! was a perfect encapsulation of his talents as a pianist, composer & bandleader. Writing for a sextet featuring Donald Byrd on trumpet, James Spaulding on alto, Joe Henderson on tenor, Bob Cranshaw on bass & Mickey Roker on drums, Pearson presents evocative originals including “Amanda,” “Bedouin” & “ESP.”
