Popular Songs - The Best of Wynton Marsalis

This superb sampler of Marsalis performances recorded between 1985 and 1999 contains eight originals and four jazz standards, from the New Orleans-flavored “Jig’s Jig” and the bluesy “Root Groove” to ballads like “I Got Lost in Her Arms” and “Where or When.” The music shifts into blistering up tempos on “Cherokee” and the burning “Black Codes” by Wynton’s remarkable mid-’80s quintet.
