This blog covers the music I play on my Live365 station: Jazz Note NSU. It is devoted to hard bop and avant garde jazz. Here I confess my faith: the center of genius in modern music is jazz; the center of genius in jazz is hard bop, and especially the body of music produced between the early 50's and the mid-60's. And at the center of it all is Miles Davis. This blog is especially aimed at readers who want to build a serious jazz library.

Happy Halloween!
I have peppered my Live365 playlist with spooky jazz and one irresistible blues number. Robert Johnson's 'Malted Milk' is one of the spookiest songs I have ever heard, especially when you consider that he allegedly died from poison.
