Blue Spirits: 85 Years Of Blue Note Records (Selected By Don Was)

Curating a single-disc compilation to represent the catalogue highlights of the legendary Blue Note, but that’s exactly what Blue Spirits: 85 Years Of Blue Note Records does. Put together by Don Was, the first disc plucks ten jazz diamonds from the label’s massive archives, from titans like John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Lee Morgan, McCoy Tyner and Wayne Shorter. That’s paired with a second disc representing the label’s roster in 2024, featuring pieces from Robert Glasper, Joshua Redman, Gregory Porter and more.
