Kenny wheelers "what now"

Anyone else enjoying this cd.The playing is so steller...ecspecially for no overdubs.Even hard believe that there were no 2nd takes,(?)The fact that there are no drums really leans on dave holland(double-bass) and john taylor(keyboards)Who is the tastiest player and never fails to amaze me.Wheeler and Potters horn work is exceptional too.I know not new cd,but very well recorded and a very worthy addition to the pile.(imho)

I bought "what now" and other titles of Wheeler's on Amazon (do a search). All good.

I saw him live in a trio years ago with Peter Erskine (drums) and a bassist (Carpenter) and it was one of my all time favorite jazz sessions. I also saw Stanko live and love his work, but I have a fondness for Wheeler, and cannot forget both shows....amazing stuff.

You might also try Abercrombies "Open Land" for some more great tidbits of Wheeler.
