Joshua Redman's second Blue Note album, 'Words Fall Short', is a collection of original compositions that serves as the introduction of his new quartet featuring pianist Paul Cornish, bassist Philip Norris, and drummer Nazir Ebo. The album also features special guest appearances by vocalist Gabrielle Cavassa, saxophonist Melissa Aldana, and trumpeter Skylar Tang. Redman acknowledges that the album title could be viewed ironically - his previous project was his first to feature a vocalist (Cavassa) - yet 'Words Fall Short' is anything but a comment on the saxophonist's last triumph. More accurately, his latest offering is an organic next step, a collection of previously unheard originals brought to life by inspiring new collaborators.
