A Wilder Alias is an album by American vocalists Jackie Cain and Roy Kral featuring performances recorded in 1973 and released on the CTI label.^[1]

Reception

The Allmusic review states "A Wilder Alias features the brilliant vocal interplay and crisply harmonized lines the two were known for, albeit in a more modal and experimental setting befitting the aesthetic of the time period... These are ambitious, funky, and somewhat fusion-style cuts that fans of '70s jazz should certainly check out".^[2]
