900 SHARES OF THE BLUES

Roots of Nu Jazz | Part 3 | The 1970s Jazz Experiment | Welcome to another journey through a wide spectrum of styles, from soul/jazz, modal and funk to african, latin and soul music. My selection focuses on jazz releases of the early 1970s. All tracks were recorded between 1969 and 1977 and mainly issued on small lables like Black Jazz, Tribe, Groove Merchant, Milestone, PM Records. Donald Byrds “Fancy Free” and Wayne Shorters “Odyssey of Isaka” are two outstanding productions of Blue Note at the end of the 1960s, which found not many followers in the Blue Note catalog.
