The Blue Note Years (1939-1998) (Toppyjazz 521)

We got a box with 14 volumes from The Blue Note Years 1939-1998.
This week you got a highlight from those recordings.
Blue Note started in 1939 with two Germans : Alfred Lion & Max Margulis.
The first takes were made in the livingroom of the Dutch parents of Rudy van Gelder!
Have fun with our choice from the best of Blue Note Records.
