The passionate title track, In Remembrance, written by Wiley, captures the essence of Black struggle. Also includes Charlie Parker's up-tempo bebop tune, Shaw-Nuff. This recording features Ed Wiley, Jr. on tenor and alto sax; Milt Hinton on bass; Shirley Scott on piano; Micky Roker and Bobby Durham on drums; Terell Stafford on trumpet; Wycliffe Gordon, longtime member of the Wynton Marsalis band, on trombone.
