Herbie Hancock, My Point of View, 1963 on Blue Note
Hancock's sophomore album as a leader, recorded by Rudy Van Gelder in Englewood Cliffs NJ. Hancock joined by Donald Byrd (trumpet), Gracham Moncur III (trombone), Hank Mobley (tenor sax), Grant Green (guitar), Chuck Isreals (bass), and Anthony Williams (drums). Herbie Hancock is a master, and it is wonderful to find the early Blue Note albums - I now have the first five in good vinyl editions. All the tracks on this one are Hancock originals - love "Blind Man, Blind Man" which recalls & […]https://goatless.org/2026/05/28/herbie-hancock-my-point-of-view-1963-on-blue-note

Grant Green, Green is Beautiful, 1970 on Blue Note
Green joined here by Blue Mitchell (trumpet), Claude Bartee (tenor sax), Emmanuel Riggens (organ), Jimmy Lewis (bass), and Idris Muhammad (drums) plus Richard Lendrum (bongos) and Candido Camero (congas).

Blue Bossa a compilation released on Blue Note back in 1986.
The first of the excellent Blue series
William Shears wrote on the Steve Hoffman music forums:
‘Blue Bossa’ blew my mind. It introduced me to Charlie Rouse, Kenny Dorham’s ‘Afrodesia’ album and Big John Patton’s magnificent ‘Let Em Roll’ and scratched the itch of a Brazilian/Latin obsession I’d been nursing since the early 80s. The compiler was Gilles Peterson, a name I knew from the incredible Jazz Juice compilations that had started coming out a couple of years before. But ‘Blue Bossa’ was an actual UK Blue Note release housed in a sharp, Reid Miles-esque sleeve and had clearly been compiled with love and care. It was an LP of truly deepcuts and as such a groundbreaking record.

I didn’t really have expectations when I threw this into my last #BlueNote order, but it seemed interesting when I read about it. What a wonderful surprise this has been so far.

Norah Jones, Day Breaks, 2016 on Blue Note
Sixth studio album from Norah Jones, and the only one so far I've managed to locate on vinyl (I've been looking). Produced by Eli Wolf and Jones, and recorded in Brooklyn, this LP has Jones going back to the piano driven vocal-centric approach of Come Away With Me. Wayne Shorter shows up on four songs playing soprano sax. Includes a great cover of Neil Young's "Don't Be Denied" as well as Horace Silver's "Peace" and Duke Ellington's "Fleurette Africaine." My copy—via the Record […]https://goatless.org/2026/05/05/norah-jones-day-breaks-2016-on-blue-note
