I fell in love with Chelsea Carmichael’s album The River Doesn't Like Strangers (2021) the first time I heard it. Produced by Shabaka Hutchings, it feels like a more subdued version of Sons of Kemet. Also has Eddie Wakili-Hick (of SoK) on drums. #recordoftheday #ukjazz #tenorsax

Stan Getz (sax) with Laurindo Almeida (guitar) ”Do what you do, do” (1963). Solid, easy, groovy bossa jazz by an amazing group of musicians. #recordoftheday #brazil #california #bossanova #bossajazz #tenorsax

For Janet Jackson’s ”That’s the way love goes” (1993), producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis sampled James Brown and the Honey Drippers, creating something new. Add Janet’s melody = classic. Happy Valentines day! #recordoftheday #janetjackson #minneapolis #rnb #impeachthepresident

As a Rhodes player, I’m a big Bob James fan. ”Nautilus”, from the 1974 album One, is a classic. Groovy, mysterious, heavily sampled. Idris Muhammad on drums, Gary King on bass and strings to add a cinematic feel. #recordoftheday #newjersey #jazz #fusion #rhodes #rudyvangelder

Seawind’s selftitled album from 1980 contains this banger called ”Long, long time”. Originally formed in Hawaiʻi as Ox, the band made a name for themselves after relocating to California in 1976. #recordoftheday #hawaii #rock #jazz #fusion
