  1. Stanley Nelson Jr. – „Miles Davis: Birth of the Cool“ (2019)

    Jazz ist für mich schon fast eine sakrale Kunstform. Das ist was für Genies, lange Nächte, zu viel Zigarettenrauch und immer auch Schmerz und elementare Emotionen. Kaum eine Figur wurde in der Geschichte des Jazz wohl so konsequent mythologisiert wie Miles Davis. Der Dokumentarfilm von Stanley Nelson Jr. versucht gar nicht erst, diesen Mythos zu zerstören. Interessanter ist, wie er ihn auseinandernimmt. Schicht für Schicht. Nicht ehrfürchtig, sondern analytisch. Und genau darin liegt der Wert dieses Films. (ARTE, Wh.)

    Prompt: Where is my mind?
    Wayne Shorter, “I Didn’t Know What Time It Was”

    This hashtag will likely be flooded with WIILD and WACKY🤪 selections this time around; gentle reader, take respite here.

    This track is by #RogersAndHart which kind of implicitly places it in the Great American Songbook. #WayneShorter recorded this version in 1960 but it wasn’t released until 1974 on his album “Second Genesis.” I encountered it on the fantastic jazz compilation “Either Side of Midnight.”

    Beautiful #jazz ballad on #TenorSax in the hands of a master? My key boxes checked. Less clinically: it is lovely.

    Checking the lyrics for this exercise, I found they portray a wizened soul looking back on an under-appreciated love in the singer’s clueless (as in the title metaphor) youth, but being unfamiliar with the lyrics, this instrumental version to me had the flavor of being so lost in the object of one’s affection upon first meeting, that suddenly (literal) time had no meaning: You walk in and…where is my mind? Sorry not sorry, Mr. Hart.

  11. 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 […]

  13. Wayne Shorter, Schizophrenia, 1969 on Blue Note

    Eleventh Wayne Shorter album, with Herbie Hancock, Curtis Fuller, Ron Carter, James Spaulding, and Joe Chambers. Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder, with Francis Wolff producing.

    This is transitional between post-bop and free jazz – looser and closer to the edge than my normal taste, but worth a listen for anyone interested in post-bop or Shorter and Hancock.

    My copy as part of the Story of Blue Note Records VMP Anthology, which was reissued in 2024.

  18. Following up on this...the report from Tracking Angle is correct: the long-out-of-print Mosaic version of this is, indeed, significantly better sounding, for whatever reason.
