Massively #swinging 1960 album Big Brass by trumpet stylist #BennyBailey. Very clean and bouncy walking by #BuddyCatlett and #ArtTaylor. Calm and deep blowing by the rest of the cast: #TommyFlanagan, #PhilWoods, #LesSpann & #JuliusWatkins on the #FrenchHorn (!!). https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lWOkPNctCg7Rbr2Wk69hIMRn8d9KutPS8&si=-gal-zr1BCc58L4y #blackmusic #jazz
In this difficult time we need to look to the strength of our fellow Black Americans who have to incessantly fight against racism. This article lists some Black songs about oppression.

The Beatles just carried it a bit further, made [Black music] a bit more white, even more than Elvis did...
There is not one white group on Earth that hasn’t got [Black people's] music in them

Disco's Revenge released in 2024
Phenomenal history of disco and soundtrack which sadly omits that the Stonewall Riots, a series of protests were started by a [Black] transgender woman named Marsha P. Johnson

'When an article, which was published in 1971 in the New York Times, slammed how The Beatles “ripped off” black musicians...
His line of defence was more at how the journalist had targetted The Beatles when in Lennon’s view every band of the day were as guilty as his old band.'

Who knew watching Knicks vs. Lakers with the sound off while listening to Public Enemy’s “Fear of a Black Planet,” was a vibe? 
FANTASTIC 4!
It’s Black History Month! And it’s my firm belief that the greatest export from the USA is Afro-American culture. If I’m being honest I am steeped in it. The music I make has a direct lineage and debt to the efforts of my elders who came before me. Respect the elders! #blackhistorymonth #blackhistory #rakimthegod #juanatkins #jamesbrown #felakuti #music #blackmusic #funk #hiphop #techno #afrobeat
Kickin' off #BlackHistory month!! Who got the music?

Some of you might know this one from #FionaApple covering it on her #MTVUnplugged live thing (i think it was...)
Her version is really good, btw. i think there's some story about her having a special connection to this song, in fact.
Anyone?
