The Past Recaptured: 2009 Reissues

Denny ZeitlinThis week on Night Lights I highlight some of my favorite reissues and historical releases from the past year. We’ll hear music from pianist Denny Zeitlin’s mid-1960s Columbia recordings, saxophonist Jackie McLean’s One Step Beyond (featuring Jackie’s smoldering, adventurous early-1960s group with trombonist Grachan Moncur and vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson), Stan Getz playing with an organ trio, a live date with lost-legend trumpeter Dupree Bolton, an unearthed 1969 concert from Freddie Hubbard’s European tour quartet, and more.

Watch Curtis Amy and Dupree Bolton perform “Katanga” on Frankly Jazz:
