Rising star tenor saxophonist Willie Morris unleashes
a clarion call of jubilation with his debut
album "Conversation Starter." With an engaging
and well-balanced set of exciting compositions
and arrangements, Morris capably displays all of
his wondrous abilities as a powerful soloist,
songwriter, and bandleader. Morris' tour de force
intensity gets the program going quickly delivering
a hard-hitting musical message from the scintillating
opening salvo all the way through to the
brilliant resolution of the elegant finale. Supporting
Morris on the date are the combined efforts of
alto saxophonist Patrick Cornelius, and the sturdy
rhythm section of pianist Jon Davis, bassist Adi
Meyerson, and drummer EJ Strickland. "Conversation
Starter" will surely delight straight forward
jazz fans and keep people talking about these
dynamic performances for a long time to come!
