O’s Notes: Drummer, composer Matt Wilson leads a quintet with Jeff Lederer (t-sax, cl), Tia Fuller (a-sax), Dawn Clement (p, vocals), and Ben Allison (b) for his latest release, Good Trouble. They swing hard on “Fireplace”, Albert’s Alley” and the 3-part Good Trouble Suite. “Feet Music” is free improv before Dawn tames the lion with soft vocals on “Sunshine On My Shoulders” wrapping the festive, calypso, “CommUnity Spirit”.
