New releases & Anniversary Blue Notes

Click the play button to listen

First show of the month means Blue Notes! But there's only one 50th anniversary celebration: Big Big John Patton's Memphis to New York Spirit. Never fear, though, there's more from Blue Note ahoy: the 60th anniversary of Back to the Tracks from saxophonist Tina Brooks; a great new band, Artemis; and classic James P. Johnson from BN-27. Along the way, Fats Waller, Jackie McLean, Bird @ 100, Omer Avital in two different ensembles, and a Young Rascals compare & contrast with saxophonist Doug Webb (you'll be amazed at how hip a tune "How Can I Be Sure" is). You will enjoy the show, especially if you listen to the whole thing!
