O’s Notes: This is the debut recording for Chris Pattishall, a polished pianist that has captured respect and admiration from many fellow musicians. He takes on Mary Lou Williams’ Zodiac Suite with his own dreamlike interpretations and arrangements. Zodiac gives us a song for each astrological sign and the songs range across the universe encompassing the taste of ragtime, ballads, bebop, and even some spacey out-of-this-world tunes as Pattishall expresses his imagination with a fine quintet including Riley Mulherkar (t), Rubin Fox (sax), Marty Jaffe (b) and Jamison Ross (d). The more we listened, the more we liked!
