Blue Note Bonanza
Our Blue Note racks are currently looking extremely tasty as we have recently put out a collection of mainly ‘60s pressings from some absolute giants of jazz music including Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Tony Williams, Grachan Moncur III, Bobby Hutcherson and many more. Here Leo gives his rundown of three of his absolute favourites from the bunch. Herbie Hancock - “Empyrean Isles” (1964) When it comes to jazz Herbie has truly done it all.
