50th anniversary Blue Notes from December 1969 this week from Jack McDuff (Moon Rappin') and Reuben Wilson (the seriously greasy Blue Mode) and part of a Donald Byrd session (Kofi) only released 25 years after the fact! Then, there's this one: Jazz Wave Ltd. on Tour, Volume 1. It's a double LP (it's in my lap as I write this), never reissued in any form and if it's streaming somewhere, I haven't found it. Recorded live in Germany, it features Jeremy Steig, Kenny Burrell, Jack McDuff, Freddie Hubbard, Jimmy McGriff and the Thad Jones Mel Lewis Remembered; we play the two top tracks. Along the way, BN-16 from Meade Lux Lewis, classic Steve Grossman, Bennie Wallace with Chick Corea and Wes Montgomery. Enjoy the show. If you're not listening to jazz on Gifts & Messages, you're missing something.
