Introduced Littlest to CDs and Louis Armstrong last night.

The way this kid loves music brings me so much joy.

Good *afternoon* #JukeboxFridayNight

Aplogies for the tardiness, but your #JazzAndBlues playlist is ready for your weekend listening:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZe9K6g9lwnR_oYd-_2Y1rtHMPlBRW34r

I rebuilt my machine during the week, and had to re-install all my python libraries to get the script working again. All fixed now.

As always, the playlist has been added to the top of the JukeBoxFridayNight section at the top of my homepage here: https://www.youtube.com/@SteveNixon which is where you can find all the historic playlists.

If you realllllllly don't think you're into jazz, these are some gateway songs:

Take Five

Getz Gilberto
https://youtu.be/v5DZ5clg-bg

Roy Hargrove at the New Morning
https://youtu.be/1w3FVfkBVTE

Please note as well: Miles Davis and John Coltrane are known far beyond jazz. I don't think either are good starting points. I don't think bebop is a good starting point.

Swing, Hard Bop, and New Orleans jazz are more audience friendly.

Fink's Sunday Night Blues Club, Vol.1 is an amazing album. If I had to pick one song from it, it'd probably be Boneyard. I love that guitar part so much

Tonight's post is dedicated to Dr. Bernie Lotstein.
He was my music teacher, and he taught us everything from Beethoven to The Tubes. A fully qualified conductor, he was a huge influence in my love of music. He is a big Brubeck fan.
"Take Five"
