His longtime main ensemble — Wilson on guitar and vocals accompanied by Blue Note recording artist Gerald Clayton on piano and keyboards, bassist David Piltchand Jay Bellerose on drums and percussion — helps bring the tales to life with these musical settings much as, say, Jonny Greenwood’s score does in Power of the Dog.
