With SKETCHES OF MD, Garrett adds several historic firsts to his resume:  the first live recording of the Kenny Garrett/Pharoah Sanders pairing, Garrett's first recorded set at New York City's famed Iridium Jazz Club, and his first release on Mack Avenue. In addition to Sanders, Garrett is joined on stage by Nat Reeves on bass, Benito Gonzalez on keys and Jamire Williams on drums.
