Is it freedom, is it tradition, is it alive, does it continue to evolve and thrive or is it an art form stuck in time. I cannot answer any of these questions or even really tell you what Jazz is. I can tell you how it makes me feel, where it takes me and what it means to me, but best I leave that to the music which does it much more eloquently.
This is Volume 1 in a new series where I invite my favourite Jazz selectors to select 45 minutes of tracks that defines (albeit briefly) their visions of Jazz and what it means to them. I then attempt to provide my own 45 minutes inspired by their selections. This is a powerful challenge for all involved and will be a deep and transporting journey for the listener as well.
First up we have my good friend and one of the best Jazz selectors around https://www.mixcloud.com/DJ_JimmyMac/. Do yourselves a favour and visit his page, give him a follow and immerse yourselves in the beauty of his collection.
