Mr. Wizard is an album by saxophonist Vincent Herring which was recorded in 2003 and released on the HighNote label the following year.
[1] AllMusic reviewed the album stating "Hard bop fans will want to snap up this delightful CD without hesitation".
[2] JazzTimes observed "Vincent Herring’s third album for HighNote demonstrates once again the altoist/sopranoist’s prodigious skill as an improviser in the hard bop/modal tradition ...
Herring possesses a virtuoso technique and an acute ear that allow him to execute long, melodically and rhythmically complex lines without missing a note or a beat.
[4] All About Jazz noted "Vincent Herring has developed a foolproof prescription for making great records: employ compatible sidemen, choose appealing compositions and approach the music with zealous devotion.
