Yesterday You Said Tomorrow is a studio album by American jazz trumpeter Christian Scott.
The concept understands and respects the jazz traditions that came before and doesn't attempt to replace them, instead trying to embrace within its rhythmic and harmonic frameworks as many musical forms and cultural languages as possible.
His later albums Christian aTunde Adjuah and Stretch Music will be thoughtful extensions of that model.
"[9] Chris May of All About Jazz wrote "Trumpeter Christian Scott started raising expectations in 2006, with Rewind That (Concord), and hit the spot again in 2007 and 2008.
Scott's fourth Concord album is a gym-ripped amalgam of edgy jazz, hip hop and rock rhythms, off-kilter ostinatos, intimate rhapsodies and full-on passions, all welded together by the New Orleans-born player's alternately caressing and searing horn, and by his most tightly focused band to date.
