I picked up this #JackDeJohnette #VinylRecord a few weeks ago. I’d been hunting for one for years. It shows how much of a visionary he was and how much stylistic range his expression had.

Porgy and Bess soundtrack to the movie starring Dorothy Dandridge and Sydney Poitier (1959) How many folks know that it was Bobby Mcferrin Sr. (the father of the singer who scored a hit single with “don’t worry be happy” many years later) who dubbed in the singing parts for Mr. Poitier? #vinylrecord
