O’s Notes: Pianist Joe Gilman leads a trio with Joe Sanders on bass and drummer Justin Brown. They take nine of Stevie Wonder’s hits and jazz them up quite a bit. The opener “I Wish” features Joe cooking up a storm. We are classifying it as contemporary R&B jazz but the application is straight ahead. It is sure to touch fans on both sides as it is well executed.
