DIGIPACK EDITION

The title of bassist Gerald Cannon’s first disc since 2004 takes note of the fact that none of the 11 songs—five of them Cannon originals—feature the same configuration of musicians. But this is no hodgepodge. Ten cohorts who had previously shared a bandstand with the bassist convened over a two-day period to knock out material specifically tailored to their talents.
