O’s Notes: Jason displays his chops on drums right up front on the opener before anchoring his quintet and keeping the Music in Motion. The songs, all written by Marsalis, build on bebop, Brazilian, fusion, free and traditional jazz bursting with energy throughout. He shows his skills with brushes, mallets and sticks, the youngest Marsalis is also a force to be reckoned with!
