Joe Henderson plays a gig with Andrew Hill at the inaugural Mt. Fuji Jazz Festival, as told by Michael Cuscuna

@brandonousley I have a soft spot for the general sound of 90s/2000s R&B but I think this was truer then than it is even now. “Voodoo” must have been such a breath of fresh air

@Mark_Stryker These were a little bit before my time on Twitter.

I’ve been enjoying the album over the past few days. Lee’s band (kinda) with early Wayne tunes + Frank Strozier, what’s not to love? Lee on VJ is starting to sound like its own bag

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

@jazzsnob99 This was not on my radar. Looks like a great resource, thanks. Incredible how much information dedicated jazz fans and archivists have been able to preserve

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

How the hell is it that I have never heard about this album?

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

@jazzsnob99 I love that this catalog breaks it down by bars/choruses. Must've taken a great deal of work

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

@jazzsnob99 I go back to the research project Sandy Jordan put together pretty often. I went down a rabbit hole with Two Gun Pete and Idlewild

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

@LewistheLight1 I made the same mistake with Kenny Burrell once lol

Louis Hayes attributes Strozier’s quitting music to the dissolution of their quartet with Harold Mabern

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

@LewistheLight1 Strozier is African American and went to segregated schools for AAs in Memphis

@BarroomNetwork @RichardERoeper @nytimes The traditional movie-going audience was rowdy

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

Rock music has never again been as trance-inducing, as propulsive, as Africanized as it was in Bo’s self-titled debut single

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

Genuinely think the “Bo Diddley beat” as played by the original Bo Diddley band on the debut studio album is still the greatest sound in rock&roll history

This live version is alright

@Mark_Stryker @mcbridesworld Sonny made the cut a few days ago

@jazzsnob99 The Burleigh Chicago Defender article referenced here is exactly the article I was looking for, thank you

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

Looking for an old, old article I came across a while ago (possibly written by someone involved in the black church) decrying the jazz interpretation of the spiritual as a corruption/inauthentic/not connected to the source. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

While looking, I found another great one: "Jazz - A Drug" by E. Elliot Rawlins for New York Amsterdam News, 1925

@velvethoss @brandonousley Lol to be fair this one was mostly Sly.

[PIHEKANS @PIHEKANS]

@brandonousley @De_Here Worth noting that Sly grew up in what was and is one of the most diverse cities in the US, and that he was a radio DJ in the Bay Area. This all informs his music, and even the band concept
