Playlist for 3-10-2020 WFCF - 1964!

1964 Sinclair Gas Station

This week we explored jazz recorded in the year 1964; when the average income was about $6,000, gasoline was 25¢ a gallon, bread was about 21¢ a loaf and a postage stamp cost 5¢! Everyone was alive and active; some soldiering on, some in transition, some stretching their boundaries... Miles, Coltrane, Jackie McLean, George Benson, Sonny Rollins, Herbie Hancock, Wes Montgomery, Art Blakey, Grant Green & more. In the mix was some of the best and more progressive cuts from the new jazz shelf. Thanks to all who tuned in and thanks to you for stopping by!
