Product Description Randy Sandke, one of jazz's most respected mainstream artists presents perhaps the most successful convergence of metational with mainstream jazz Ed Berger/Rutgers U. Review Randy Sandke, one of jazz's most respected "mainstream" artists, has mastered a wide range of musical idioms - from traditional jazz to his own intriguing "metaonal" theory. In more traditional contexts such as this, Sandke manages to create music that is widely appealing while remaining true to himself. Unconventional Wisdom represents perhaps the most successful convergence to date of the metatonal with the mainstream and should appeal to both of Sandke's audiences. And musical theory aside, it reaffirms the fact that Randy is one hell of a trumpet player! -- Ed Berger, Associate Director of the Institute of Jazz Studies, Rutgers University.

Best mainstream jazz in a while
There is nothing very unconventional about this recording but it still is the favorite mainstream jazz album that I've bought in a long while. The trumpet playing is outstanding and the production values are of the highest quality. Sandke is certainly at or near the top of the best jazz trumpeters around.
