Un classico del grande trombettista, live nel 1964, rimasterizzato
Primo lavoro come solista per il leader degli ALO. Con Jack Johnson ospite in un brano, Stuff è un perfetto esempio di sofisticato rock 'n' soul di matrice Sud Californiana. Pensate agli Steely Dan che si mischiano alle armonie vocali dei Beach Boys. Come nel caso degli ALO grandi armonie, belle canzoni e un background elegante e mai fine a sè stesso. Disponibile dal 5 Settembre.
Don Cheadle, alla sua prima regia, interpreta la parte di Miles Davis, in un biopic dedicato al jazzista, per celebrare il suo novantesimo compleanno. Questo CD rappresenta la soundtrack con una manciata di classici di Davis ( registrati tra il 1956 ed il 1981). Inoltre il disco contiene qualche dialogo del film e cinque composizioni nuove di Robert Glasper, scritte per la soundtrack. Tra le quali abbiamo What's Wrong With That?, il brano che chiude la pellicola, dove Cheadle recita a fianco di Wayne Shorter e Herbie Hancock ( compagni del trombettista al tempo) oltre che con Glasper, Gary Clark Jr. ed Esperanza Spalding.
