Blowing In from Chicago is a studio album by the American jazz saxophonists Clifford Jordan and John Gilmore. It was released through Blue Note Records in July 1957. The recording was made on March 3, 1957 and the quintet assembled for the session features rhythm section Horace Silver, Curly Russell and Art Blakey.

The Penguin Jazz Guide suggests that the album may be “the neglected masterpiece of Blue Note hard bop”, noting that Gilmore plays in a style distinct from the freer approach he used with Sun Ra, and that Jordan solos powerfully but with “real thought and logic”. - Wikipedia

I'm trying to find a quote.

I'm fairly certain it was by John Gilmore. It's about creating email, and runs something like: we made it virtually free for anyone anywhere to communicate with anyone else and it wasn't an accident.

I'm pretty sure "wasn't an accident" is in there. I'm not finding the rest of it.

Probably 1990s / early aughts.
