New Jazz Releases..What Do You Like?

Any new releases(not re-issues) in Jazz that you are enjoying listening to?

I would prefer real Jazz rather than the Kenny G smooth (?)music, but post what you like.

My current favorite newer release is Russell Malone's "Heartstrings" on Verve. Mr. Malone appears to have dumped the Buscarino for a DeAngelico New Yorker...and the sound is just superb.

So, let's hear what current Jazz you feel is worth a listen!

This not exactly new (2000?), but James Carter's "Chasin' The Gypsy" (an homage to Django) is fantastic! Carter plays everything from bass sax to soprano sax, has violin and accoridian mixed in, acoustic guitar, etc. The musicianship is extraordinary.

I couldn't go to bed last night until I has listened to it 3 times! His newer stuff is just as good.
