We could spend hours talking about the many things that made Carla Bley unique, and made her passing a huge loss for the world of jazz. This week we decided to focus on her songbook, as interpreted by many of the peers that admired her work.
The playlist features Gary Burton; Henri Texier; Marcin Wasilewski; Steve Cardenas, Ben Allison, Ted Nash; Antonio Zambrini, Jesper Bodilsen, Martin Maretti Andersen; Jean-Charles Capon, Richard Galliano, Gilles Perrin; NRBQ; Nick Mason; Donkey Monkey (feat. Eve Risser, Yuko Oshima); and Nancy Zeltsman.
