Thought-provoking jazz this week from all corners: Gil Mellé, Lennie Tristano, Deodato, Bob DeVos, Clark Terry & Bob Brookmeyer, George Russell, Jack DeJohnette... also we spent a full quarter-hour listening to pieces from Kenyon Hopkin's "Yellow Canary" soundtrack, and a two-fer from a groovy 70's release by Sonny Stitt. All that and plenty of new jazz releases, too! Thanks for tuning in or stopping by! - Kendo

Ps - I stumbled upon the artist above today; awesome visuals! He'll be featured on the next few playlists. Be sure to visit his gallery, and support all the creative arts! :)
