Sweet reissues, new archival releases, and a truly new recording that is nevertheless a tribute to a genius musician of the 1950s and early 1960s... what can I say, I'm just an old-school kind of jazz fan! Also a vinyl listener, and the vast number of all-analogue, well-cut and well-pressed reissues of classic jazz albums coming out now make this a great time to collect records.

Vince Guaraldi's Peanuts special music got me into jazz in the first place, and the wonderful series of complete soundtracks released now expand our understanding of his work. I also want to highlight Zev Feldman's continuing series of archival projects that present never-before-heard documents of jazz history—the latest being the amazing live recording by McCoy Tyner and Joe Henderson at the storied jazz club Slugs. Looking forward to more great stuff in 2025!
