New York, NY. (Blue Note Records)-Wynton Marsalis' moving new album From the Plantation to the Penitentiary, offers a clear-eyed and uncompromising look at the cracks in America's facade of prosperity and happiness.

By turns soothing, urgent, playful, and angry, From the Plantation to the Penitentiary distills Marsalis' recent observations on our modern American way of life as he's traveled the nation as a performer, teacher, and private citizen.
Through the sultry alto of 21-year old singer Jennifer Sanon, he gives voice to the 'tattered ragmen' of America in 'Find Me,' rebukes our misogynistic entertainment industry in 'Love and Broken Hearts,' and denounces the uncontrolled financial exploitation of modern America in which 'there's never enough' in the frantic 'Super Capitalism.'
The most striking track on the album is 'Where Y'all At?,' a rare spoken-word vocal performance by Marsalis, in which he demands to know what's happened to all the responsible leaders in America.
