If you like Deep in the Shed, it's in your best interest to also have Wynton Marsalis "Majesty of the Blues" with some of the same musicians including Roberts front and center. Marsalis also recorded the powerful "Soul Gestures in Southern Blue" trilogy in the same era which has some parallels in theme and history but they don't compare to Deep in the Shed. Marcus Roberts always amazes me with his fine arrangements and this album is no exception. The textures of the music embellish the various moods he develops, from Eastern to swing to soulful romance. The band is exceptional and the inter-connection between the players is fantastic. Roberts is in fine form. His silky smooth piano playing on Nebuchadnezzar and Spiritual Awakening to his mesmerizing piano skipping on The Governor, E. Dankworth and Deep in the Shed are wonderful. The solo pieces are pure fun.
