Walter Smith Quintet

Saxophonist Walter Smith III is best known for his work in Terence Blanchard's band, though he's also collaborated with Destiny's Child and Lauryn Hill. Here he steps up as a leader in his own right, with a promising quintet—trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire, pianist Jason Moran, bassist Joe Sanders and drummer Eric Harland—joined by guest saxophonist Logan Richardson.
