Benny Bailey's "Grand Salm," released on August 20, 1998, under the Storyville label, is a masterful exploration of hard bop, jazz, and bebop. This 57-minute journey through nine tracks showcases Bailey's virtuosity and innovative spirit. The album opens with "Reflectory, Pt. 1," setting the stage for a dynamic interplay of brass and rhythm, a signature of Bailey's style. "Who's Bossa Now?" injects a lively Brazilian influence, while "Let Me Go, Pt. 1" and "Pt. 2" offer a soulful, introspective contrast. The title track, "Thelonious Assault," pays homage to the legendary Thelonious Monk, blending complexity with accessibility. Throughout "Grand Salm," Bailey's trumpet work is both technically impressive and deeply expressive, making this album a standout in his discography.
