Orrin Evans and the Captain Black Big Band: Walk a Mile in My Shoe review perseverance and Philly pride
Briefly

This record is me opening the door into what I've lived with for years, acknowledging my neurofibromatosis, which has affected my life and mobility since birth.

Lisa Fischer stands out vocally, moving from unnerving falsettos to resonant whispers, her versatility showcased in performances of tracks like Blues in the Night.
While there may be a vocal or two too many for some jazzers, they don’t overwhelm the improv and arranging class of this intuitively inventive band.
