  1. Herbie Hancock, My Point of View, 1963 on Blue Note

  10. #NowSpinning No More Water: The Gospel Of James Baldwin by Meshell Ndegeocello

    I didn’t really have expectations when I threw this into my last #BlueNote order, but it seemed interesting when I read about it. What a wonderful surprise this has been so far.

  14. Norah Jones, Day Breaks, 2016 on Blue Note

    Sixth studio album from Norah Jones, and the only one so far I've managed to locate on vinyl (I've been looking). Produced by Eli Wolf and Jones, and recorded in Brooklyn, this LP has Jones going back to the piano driven vocal-centric approach of Come Away With Me. Wayne Shorter shows up on four songs playing soprano sax. Includes a great cover of Neil Young's "Don't Be Denied" as well as Horace Silver's "Peace" and Duke Ellington's "Fleurette Africaine." My copy—via the Record […]

  26. Freddie Roach, Good Move!, 1964 on Blue Note

    Freddie Roach’s third album as a leader, recorded by Rudy Van Gelder in Englewood Cliff with Blue Mitchell (trumpet), Hank Mobley (tenor sax), Eddie Wright (guitar), and Clarence Johnston (drums).

    Tunes include “It Ain’t Necessarily So” (Gerswhin) and Pastel (Garner) as well as “T’Ain’t What You Do (It’s The Way That You Do It).” Great soul-jazz organ here.

    My copy—via Amazon—is the Tone Poet Series reissue from 2024, with lacquer cut by Kevin Gray and pressing at RTI. As you can expect from this series it’s a great sounding pressing with lovely packaging.
