Tracklist
Kenny Garrett
In the '90s Kenny Garrett became the most sought-after alto saxophonist in jazz for his exceptional strength as a soloist and his seemingly boundless creativity. In his early career he served in one of Mile Davis's last bands. He has recorded a string of critically acclaimed discs and continues to forge new paths as a leader of the modern mainstream.
Ramsey Lewis
Pianist Ramsey Lewis first gained fame via his trio's 1965 recording THE IN CROWD. The group covered jazz standards and modern pop tunes with equal interest, and in the '70s, Ramsey struck further gold with his electric piano work in the jazz-funk realm. Later years found him an ambassador of jazz, hosting both a weekly TV program on BET and a syndicated radio series.
