Blue Note Records Showcase
’89 & Onwards
An introduction to Blue Note Records seems hardly necessary. Formed in 1939 by Alfred Lion & Max Margulis, the label is resurgent under new label head Don Was & for over 70 years still continues to remain pivotal in all matters jazz.
Mike Chadwick looks at recent times in the latest Blue Note Showcase. On offer, early work from Stefon Harris and Robert Glasper plus a name to watch out for in 2013: José James. A KILLER from his Blue Note debut ‘No Beginning, No End’.
Your feedback is always welcome and we hope you enjoy another unique presentation from SoulandJazz.com.
