Not only a form of expression unique to black America, the blues is one of the major musical elements of jazz. Great jazzmen are often also great bluesmen with the gift of adapting the sound of the human voice to that of their instrument. In this album, comprising two CDs, Jacques Morgantini presents some of the most beautiful blues recorded by jazz musicians, a perfect blend of the lyricism of blues and the exuberance of jazz.

    1. First of all, thank you for requesting this album lagreed.

      When I suggested you visit https://azzulscollective.blogspot.com/ for future blues requests, it's because they're specialized in blues, while Silky Denims is specialized in jazz (it's written right above the cbox).

      Both blogs were created by the same person (mat.tiggas aka azzul) with different purposes.

      So, please don't take me wrong.
