The success last year of Wilson's captivating album of standards, Blue Skies, undoubtedly created an

audience with an appetite for more of the same. Unfortunately, the 11 originals on her latest album are

repetitive and shallow: The melodies are as nebulous as poor improvisations, and the lyrics — all inspired

by a science fiction conceit that never comes into focus — are doggerel. Wilson's plaintive, chesty voice

compels interest and respect, but it is the inventive solos, notably by saxophonist Steve Coleman,

trumpeter Graham Haynes, and guitarist David Gilmore, that provide the real juice here. The less closely

you pay attention, the better it sounds.
