To finish, I received a nice postcard from the jazz cowboy: Laurent Bardainne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Stan Getz &amp; Joao Gilberto - The Girl From Ipanema\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/j8VPmtyLqSY\/?list=PLBHcUEhUrXk6OoYOOACF-RYL_c5ciBsFm&#038;autoplay=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Stan Getz et Jo\u00e3o Gilberto avec Ant\u00f4nio Carlos Jobim <strong>\u2014 <\/strong><em>Getz \/ Gilberto<\/em> (Verve <strong>\u2013<\/strong> 1963)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a jazz record that brings those summer vibes! From the very first notes, we are transported to Rio de Janeiro with a dry Schweppes in hand ;-). This vinyl has a special flavour for me because it&#8217;s one of the first records I found at a flea market&#8230; a long time ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I must admit that I was a bit hesitant to include it, partly because it&#8217;s a mega jazz standard that most of you will know, but also because American saxophonist Stan Getz could be accused of cultural appropriation with his work on bossa nova. But since bossa is itself a combination of American jazz and Brazilian music, it can be seen as one sibling replying to another. Moreover, Stan Getz surrounded himself with two of the creators of the bossa nova movement: Joao Gilberto and Antonio Carlos Jobim. The genius idea came in the form of a version of &#8220;A garota de Ipanema,&#8221; sung in English by the sublime Astrud Gilberto, Joao&#8217;s wife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stan Getz was no stranger to bossa nova, as he had already recorded two albums that I also recommend \u2013 <em>Jazz Samba<\/em> with guitarist Charlie Byrd and J<em>azz Samba Again<\/em> with Brazilian guitarist Luiz Bonfa. It&#8217;s on this album that you&#8217;ll find one of my favourite tracks ever, &#8220;Saudade vem Correndo,&#8221; a piece cleverly sampled by The Pharcyde for &#8220;Runnin&#8217;.&#8221; Another of my all time classics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Emanuel K.

Rahim &amp; The Kahliqs <strong>\u2014 <\/strong><em>Total Submission<\/em> (Cobblestone <strong>\u2013<\/strong> 1972)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a much less known record than <em>Getz \/ Gilberto<\/em> but just as good. It also provides an occasion to talk about Latin jazz, which is another of my jazz passions. I could have told you about Dizzy Gillespie, Tito Puente, Ray Barreto or Harlem River Drive, but I might as well offer something a bit different!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There isn\u2019t much information out there on the percussionist Emanuel K. Rahim, except that he changed his name at the beginning of the 70&#8217;s like many jazzmen linked to Afrocentrism and spiritual jazz. He used to be Juan Amalbert, a name on which you\u2019ll find much more info as he was one of the founders of the Latin Jazz Quintet, a superb group. I would recommend their collaboration with Pharoah Sanders on the LP <em>Oh Pharoah speak<\/em>. It even includes a different version of \u201cSpirit of truth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An avalanche of percussion, brass solos in all directions and beautiful piano themes &#8230; in short all the ingredients of Latin jazz. It sportsith danceable tracks alongside calmer ballads. And as usual, the beautiful cover art makes it even more enjoyable to listen to! Note that this album, which can be found quite easily, was reissued a few years later on the Muse label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Dreamflower\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XhYpqI4HVYw\/?list=OLAK5uy_m1af1ePyJGpAJbYT8UBRzLPKSrwGwNn-4&#038;autoplay=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tarika Blue <strong>\u2014 <\/strong><em>Tarika Blue <\/em>(Chiaroscuro <strong>\u2013<\/strong> 1977)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the first season of this series, I recommended Roy Ayers and the Mizell brothers, so let&#8217;s close this summer with some jazz funk, a genre that works wonders in the sunshine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><em>Tarika Blue<\/em> is linked to Roy Ayers, for whom the group often opened (as well as for the Mahavishnu Orchestra). We are here for jazz fusion with synthesizers and huge bass lines. The album alternates between soaring tracks and much funkier ones with a beautiful female voice carrying it all. &#8220;Dreamflower,&#8221; &#8220;Love It&#8221; and &#8220;Truth is the Key&#8221; are classics of rare groove. Note the participation of the formidable James Mason on this album, a musician who went on to release his seminal <em>Rhythm of Life<\/em> on the same label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find all the songs in our updated playlists on&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.deezer.com\/fr\/playlist\/6237251644\">Deezer<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/2xWoGMiFO9PAFne00hsJqG?si=qLo5HwcoSViCMgjsvVByZg\">Spotify<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Now, you know the score: every week I ask an artist from the label to talk about one of the favourite vinyl pieces from his collection.
