O’s Notes: William’s music is easy to listen to. He plays piano and the leads a band of musicians through a dozen very strong grooves. They are anchored by the rock solid beats of Chris Kent (elect b), Alana Rocklin (acous b), Derico Watson (d) and Glen Caruba (perc). Denny Jisoa (g), Jeffrey Scott Willis (sax) and Woods share the melodies without getting in each other’s way. “Listen to This”, “Inside Job” and “Not Suitable For Children” stand out among a sea of very good tunes.
