  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.)

  2. A 1960 session, first released in 1974. Shorter (it's his second session as a leader) is accompanied by Bob Cranshaw (b), Art Blakey (d) and Cedar Walton (p). And what a superb album cover.

  3. Another Sunday & I’m #NowSpinning #Indestructible by #ArtBlakey & the Jazz Messengers.

    This adds #CurtisFuller bringing Mingus-eque vibes on the trombone, but, imo, #WayneShorter is the star unleashing some killer sax. Plus it has the irrepressible #LeeMorgan who is worth the price of entry alone.

    This #record is cut by #KevinGray as part of the #BlueNote Classics series which, in a world of spiraling #vinyl costs, still represents great value.

  4. Long day & in need of a pick me up & so I’m #NowSpinning #TheBigBeat by #ArtBlakey and the Jazz Messengers.

    #Moanin’ is my favourite Blakey album with this a very close second. The lineup here is peerless, #LeeMorgan, #BobbyTimmons, #WayneShorter, & Blakey just smokes.

    Every track is a winner & It’s Only A Paper Moon is one hell of a way to sign off.

    This is another #KevinGray cut from the consistently great #BlueNote Classics series.
