Album Notes
Personnel: Wynton Marsalis (trumpet); Walter Blanding (soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone); Dan Nimmer (piano); Carlos Henriquez (upright bass); Ali Jackson (drums).
Audio Remasterer: Scott Hull.
Backed by his regular band, Wynton Marsalis's HE AND SHE is a concept album with the underlying theme of relationships between men and women as major artistic inspiration. While there are moody and serious tracks ("Fears" and brief spoken word interludes), there is also the genial and graceful mid-tempo "The Razor Rim," wherein Wynton's horn sings like it's the first day of spring. Both the blues-drenched "School Boy" and "A Train, A Banjo, and a Chicken Wing" reflect a powerful 1920s Louis Armstrong influence (the latter featuring a soaring, searing sax solo from Walter Blanding). The surreal and short "First Crush" is a tip-of-the-hat to the freer (yet lyrical) side of early `60s John Coltrane. Copiously contemplative with several shades of nostalgia and melancholy, HE AND SHE is both serious art and serious fun.

Editorial Reviews
Wynton's HE AND SHE, his spin on the timeless themes of romantic interactions and frictions, finds the trumpeter composer delving deeper into thematic-driven and text-based projects.

4 stars out of 5 -- [The album] intersperses adroitly-crafted jazz with short, quasi-poetical spoken word passages to create a narrative...
Record Collector

3 stars out of 5 -- 'The Razor Rim,' the most exciting cut on the album, casts an intricately accented melody in 9, then runs through 5 and 4. The timbres are vintage Marsalis...
