MUSIC OR DIE #28–Jimmy Smith, "Back at the Chicken Shack" (1961)

This is a perfect album cover and I won't be taking any questions at this time, thank you

(For info on that, clickety-click-click)

In which I return to my old frenemy...jazz. 


TL;DR


As ever, I dread running out of these images

"Muddy At Newport Waters 1960" - a great album

1000+ part series.

MUSIC OR DIE #26–Miriam Makeba, "Miriam Makeba" (1960)

This is so 1960s and I'm so here for it

Part 26 of my 1000+ part series.
(For info on that, clickety-click-click)

In which I explore music from another continent (well, technically more than one continent) and try bit by bit to lessen my own ignorance. 


TL;DR

Show 'em how it's done, Miriam
