Marcus Gilmore

Bye.

That's saxophonist Joshua Redman from his tribute to Sonny Rollins called If Ever You Would Leave Us, and the tune Grand Street, which featured Peter Bernstein at the guitar, Christian McBride at the bass, and Marcus Gilmore drums.

Now it's the time that I have to leave you.

Thank you for joining us here at Jazz Spectrum.

It's easy to listen to.

And there's Peter Washington playing bass and Marcus Gilmore on drums.

And All About Jazz says this, that Sullivan sets out to capture lightning in a bottle and succeeds with radiant charm.

That's what you'll find when you listen to Southern Nights by Sullivan Fortner.

Then we heard two from The Black Is Beautiful Experience.

The first one was Black Is Beautiful, featuring Nicholas Payton and Marcus Gilmore.

That's from a few years ago, and then a new song that just came out a couple of weeks ago, Beauty in Bloom, featuring the fantastic Brandee Younger on harp.

Two from Black Is Beautiful Experience.

Okay, I get what this is.

Peter Washington and Marcus Gilmore.

Yeah, so much fun.

But what I'm hearing you say is that was a trio where you said, okay, I can get booked with this trio.

I was like, Marcus, can you do it? He was like, yeah, who you got on base? I said, Peter Washington.

He said, oh, great, cool.

A few months later, he said, so who's Marcus Gilmore? I said, what do you mean? Peter says this? Yeah.

He's like, you've never met? I said, no, I've never met him.
