Good call on the Marsalis family, Martian. The late Kenny Kirkland is my main main these days and he did a lot of piano for Wynton and Branford. My favourite Wynton album is Black Codes From The Underground, which I've probably recommended on TFP before. I just like it that much.

I feel that the Marsalis family embodies the ideals of self mastery and striving to learn as much as possible. To me that is an essential part of the jazz musician of the 80s to present. I'm not a fan of Wynton's revivalist/transcription projects at the Lincoln Centre and I don't really know why Branford did A Love Supreme, but their amazing achievements still stand.
