In My Time is an album by the Gerald Wilson Orchestra, recorded in 2005 and released on the Mack Avenue label.[1]
AllMusic rated the album with 4½ stars; in his review, Scott Yanow noted: "it is the enthusiastic arranger/bandleader who takes honors with his consistently inventive writing and (one imagines) enthusiastic conducting. Highly recommended". In JazzTimes, Harvey Siders wrote: "while his concerted writing may be dense, it also swings fluidly. ...this is remarkably youthful vim and vigor for an 87-year-old".[2] On All About Jazz, Marcia Hillman noted: "The octogenerian leader pays no attention to the numbers in his age. The music he writes, arranges and conducts is fresh and vital. This is big band music at its best, full of energy and excitement".[3] The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings describe the album as having “power directed by invention and softened by sheer musicality.”
