Duke Pearson's magnificent 1964 album Wahoo! perfectly combined his talents as pianist, composer, and bandleader. Pearson wrote for a sextet with Donald Byrd on trumpet, James Spaulding on alto, Joe Henderson on tenor, Bob Cranshaw on bass, and Mickey Roker on drums. Pearson presents evocative originals, including "Amanda," "Bedouin," and "ESP."
