RE-BLOG: This Is My Jazz, Vol.1

This is a mix I originally submitted to Yewknee’s Summer Mix Series back in 2007. I wasn’t very happy with the cover art for the last one, so I banged out a new cover this evening. While I was at it, I decided to go ahead and repost the mix, seems fitting music for this time of year.

1. Cannonball Adderley Quintet – Walk Tall (Introduction by Jesse Jackson)
2. Nina Simone – See Line Woman
3. Wayne Shorter – Vera Cruz
4. Mulatu Astatke – Tezeta (Nostalgia)
5. Chick Corea & Light As A Feather – Children’s Song (Alternate Take)

It’s rough & tough in this ghetto…I can’t help thinking of Jesse Jackson on election night, his face like a mirror, a camera, a map of what’s been and what will be, so that we might have MELody & RHYthym. Walk tall!

@ “MElody & RHYthym”
That’s my favorite part of the song!
