The Standard Bearer is the third album by American jazz trumpeter Wallace Roney which was recorded in 1989 and released on the Muse label early the following year.

[1][2][3] The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated, "Roney's The Standard Bearer (dedicated to Woody Shaw) is excellent.

... Creative frameworks and inspired solos keep this recording from being just a bop revival session.

In fact, except for Roney's sound, everything about the music is quite fresh".
