Weekly Archives

This is the week of August 18th, 2008

Something old: reggae legend Peter Tosh; something new: jazz phenom Esperanza Spalding; something borrowed, something blue: ten versions of "My Favorite Things," a song borrowed from Broadway that John Coltrane, Cyrus Chestnut with Anita Baker, Al Jarreau with Kathleen Battle, Turtle Island String Quartet, Anna Luna, Jean-Michel Pilc, Hannibal Marvin Peterson, Betty Carter, Johnny Hartman, and Pharoah Sanders with Dwight Tribble, all mightily blow the blues on. Give thanks and praises!
