Album Description The Abercrombie Quartet has become one of the most widely-admired groups in contemporary jazz. It is both a deeply swinging group and an adventurous one - with a range that can encompass everything from standards to bebop to free play to chamber music or raga-esque excursions. The quartet extends the jazz tradition yet there is a consistent warmth and humanity to the sound, always evident in the harmonic and melodic material that John writes for the group. The quartet has been the primary focus of Abercrombie's work for a decade, and Wait Till You See Her is the fourth disc from the band. Interplay between Abercrombie, Feldman and Baron is given a different inflection this time around by the input of a remarkable young bass player, Thomas Morgan (28), whose resumé already includes work with Steve Coleman, Paul Motian, Masubumi Kikuchi, and whose agility and deep, rooted musicality is exceptional.

CD ReviewsAnother Great Record Michael Miller | Lexington, KY | 09/20/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "John Abercrombie and crew deliver another fine album. This is the same lineup from Third Quartet, Cat N' Mouse, and Class Trip and such, with the exception of Thomas Morgan on bass. Joey Baron and Mark Feldman give outstanding performances as usual. Every song but the title track is an Abercrombie composition, with Wait Till You See her being an old Rogers and Hart tune. This is a more somber outing than the last few albums by this group, but it's still wonderful. Any fan of John Abercrombie should pick this up. I saw this band in 2007 while they were on the Class Trip tour, and while they are amazing live, the studio records are outstanding as well." Melancholic chamber jazz and team interplay Mr. W. G. Simpson | London, England | 10/14/2009 (3 out of 5 stars) "This deflates expectations with a really slow opener and gradually improves, but its very much a team outing. I look back on John Abercrombies outings like Night and November when the saxophonist in each case was propelled to shine by (a) being a great player and (b) by JA's selflessness and great group interplay, and you get the same this time but for the violinist Marc Feldman. I personally hear more Abercrombie guitar on two recent albums - Brewsters Rooster by John Surman, and the really excellent Tales by Robert Balzar, and a bit more speed and passion frankly. This seems a little bit sad and slow in comparison but I will probably get into it as the great thing about Abercrombie records is that they always get better with every listen"
