Yes, that is indeed a blue vinyl. Reggae Interpretation of Miles Davis' Kind Of Blue! Recorded under NYU music professor Jeremy Taylor's supervision back in 1981. Sadly Taylor passed away shortly after the session, resulting the record to never see the light, not until last year when Secret Stash Records decided to dig it up and deliver this gem to the people of the world. An ecstatic blend of Jazz and Reggae!
Jeremy Taylor "Blue In Green"
Josh Roseman "New Constellations-Live In Vienna" (Accurate Records 2007)
The theme underlying the first hour of today's set was "Jazz in Reggae". Of course the birth of reggae would not have happened if it weren't for Ska--a Jamaican edition of Swing Jazz and Boogie, which makes it only natural for all Jamaican music to have that Jazz quality. Here's Josh Roseman, an established Jazz Trombone player of Jamaican descent known for his works with Dave Holland etc... giving us a 21st century take on Don Drummond's brand of Ska-Jazz. The intensity of his 11 piece jazz band makes this record quite the listening experience.
