Playing/replaying album recorded in 2009, Jimmy's renditions of "Motherless Child" and "For Once In My Life" are both haunting given his back story.
The promo for the film makes much of the fact that Scott never got credits and his material was often held back.
It's 2026, the film is nowhere.

I've been reading Dave Haslam's "Young Hearts Run Free - The Real Story of The 1970s" - there is some I just don't remember, a lot from outside my sphere, plus a few mistakes but it is otherwise a great catchall for the culture of the 70's in the UK

I listen to very few #jazzsky live albums, they are often disappointing. I for one think #recordstoreday is a bore for jazz, "hey look we have an "undiscovered" Bill Evans live".
I know many people love live releases. Someone posted hundreds of live Jazz concert recordings on the Internet Archive.

anoher forgotten or overlooked album produced by #CreedTaylor - Johnny Hodges, 1967 -Blue Notes, Verve.
Many of the 12 albums Hodges recorded for Verve included the word Blue in the album title - this as with all the others isn't an odd title at all, it features elements of the blues in the tracks.
