Happy birthday to the incredible @Roberta_Flack. I have a special place in my heart for Ms. Flack, with whom I have had a life-long friendship.

I am so saddened to hear of the death of Marianne Faithfull. She was so much part of my life for so long. She was a wonderful friend, a beautiful singer and a great actress. She will always be remembered.

Happy 81st birthday to the legendary activist, marxist, scholar and author Angela Davis.

In 1970, she was placed on the FBI 10 Most Wanted List on false charges.

[Leonard Slatkin @LeonardSlatkin]

1983: The final 20 minutes were recorded in one take. Even though we went back and did it again with stops along the way, it is that single effort on this disc. These covers celebrate my 80th birthday on Sept. 1, tracing the history of the Slatkin family through their recordings.

[Ron Carter @RonCarterBass]

Join me for #FlashbackFriday in July of 1970, when #AntonioCarlosJobim released his album #StoneFlower , my 4th collaboration with him. He was the one to introduce me to Bossa Nova, and I always looked forward to working with him.

R.I.P. Dave Sanborn.
I will always miss you

[Bob James @BobJamesMusic]

The news of the loss of David Sanborn to the music world has deeply saddened me. I was so privileged to share major highlights of my career in partnership with him. His legacy will live on through the recordings.

THE #ISAACHAYES MOVEMENT was released 54 years ago this month as the follow-up to his breakout record, HOT BUTTERED SOUL. The album spent 6 weeks in the top spot on the Billboard R&B chart, only to be dethroned by The Jackson 5.

Anyone else taking this one for a spin today?

[Sedef Kayaman @sedefkayaman]

Happy birthday to a true legend, the one and only LIZA MINNELLI #BOTD . I had the luck to see her live on stage, couldn't believe the tension of her voice and the perfect control of her movements. What a great artist.💕
