Scott Wilkie has a   splashy piano, with a mild touch of blues; his major skill is arranging, and   he blends smooth sounds in an engaging mix.  &#8220;Sign of the Times&#8221; begins with   a Morse code synth, then yields to Matt von Doran&#8217;s guitar.  &#8220;The Chicken&#8221; is   a cute funky riff that puts Scott at three different keyboards.  (The Fender   Rhodes is especially sly.)  &#8220;Pier 39&#8221; is a calm sunrise, notes coming in a   gentle spray.Von Doran is simple but elegant; Scott turns on the charm.  With   nothing flashy to speak of, this grabs your attention \u0096 and caresses.  This   is not a song &#8230; it&#8217;s a moment.  <\/p>\n<p>  It&#8217;s a different ballgame in the second half: the tunes are more forceful,   and horns help immensely.  It&#8217;s Eric Marienthal on &#8220;The Gnu Won&#8221;; his alto   grooves slow, behind one of Scott&#8217;s stronger themes.  &#8220;Fruit Sandwich&#8221; starts   as a mambo and then slows down, while simmering hot.  Lots of percussion;   Scott does a montuno in places, and von Doran has his best moment.  &#8220;Summer   Vacation&#8221; is breezy and tough; Marienthal returns for &#8220;Whale Song&#8221;, drifting   sweet as &#8220;Pier 39&#8221; did.  The soprano whistles as the piano reflects: a fine   end to a happy day.  Without raising his voice, Scott Wilkie has made a   statement.  <\/font><\/p>\n<p>    \t          <?php require($DOCUMENT_ROOT . \"_footer.htm\");   ??><\/body><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More Than You Know Scott Wilkie (Narada Jazz &#8211; 2000)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5068","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5068","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5068"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5068\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5068"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5068"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5068"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
