50th Anniversary Blue Notes for June

Click the play button to listen

Blue Note 50th anniversaries from June 1970, just two though: Horace Silver (That Healin' Feelin') and Lou Donaldson (Pretty Things). There was also a Reuben Wilson session, but it was never released, and only the 'vault gods' know if it was any good. But you know there's more (don't you?). 21st century music from the Posi-Tone Swingtet, Poncho Sanchez, Akiko Tsuruga, Sebastien Ammann's Color Wheel, Randy Brecker, Gregory Porter and Tony DaGradi. Also another R&B compare and contrast with Ruth Brown vs. Houston Person (from the neglected out-of-print classic, Soul Dance!). From deep in the vault, there's Blue Note 23, as well as Bechet, Hines and Ethel Waters. And Blue Mitchell, just because. Enjoy the show!
