Hindsight

Contemporary pandemic concept jazz from the Marsalis lineage by Grammy-winning trumpeter Porter, who serves up rushing Mingus bop, after-hours urban recumbency, theoretical fragmentation, a weary requiem -- all with assured polish and a nervous intellectual subcurrent. Recommended track: "In Short Supply," launched by Bassekou Kouyate's rippin blues-inflected n'goni, sustained by Kenneth Salters' syncopated rhythm push, draped with chile-rubbed vocal harmonies and boosted by a mess of energetic solos.
