Terry Silverlight's latest project as a bandleader delivers an assortment of modern jazz through all original compositions. A seasoned roster of guest musicians join Silverlight on Wild!!

John Clark and David Mann's horn section effortlessly supports the subtle breeze behind the sails. Chuck Loeb's artistic guitar leads add a stamp of approval to the CD's title track ... Wild!!
