Jazz Not War - Part 1 [Mondo Jazz 190-1]
from Mondo Jazz · host Ludovico Granvassu
Today it felt quite inappropriate to be upbeat and excited about all the beautiful new albums that keep coming out. After an aggressive virus has brought the world to a near halt for almost two years, we are now facing another life-threatening turn of events, this time entirely man-made. The playlist features music inspired by the eternal struggle between war and peace, from Charles Mingus’ fear of the atomic Bomb--by way of Alexis Korner--to John Coltrane’s sonic prayer for peace on earth during the tour that took him where that bomb had been dropped, Nagasaki. The playlist features Sade; Conjure; Alexis Korner; Geri Allen; Emile Parisien; Grant Green; John Coltrane. Detailed playlist at https://spinitron.com/RFB/pl/15450990/Mondo-Jazz (up to "Peace on Earth").
