Ellis Marsalis.  - Long known as a teacher of jazz and for the success of his musical sons, Ellis is a superb yet underrated pianist. "The Marsalis Family - A Jazz Celebration" features Ellis performing for the first time ever with all of his four musical sons Wynton, Branford, Delfeayo, and Jason. Could the album possibly live up to the high expectations? It does. Showcasing the individual talents along with father and sons collectively as a group, this album shows why this is the most prominent family on the jazz scene today. Be sure to also check out the Ellis Marsalis Trio album "Twelve's It", another great example of the talent of Ellis Marsalis featuring Jason Marsalis on drums.
