#HappyBirthdayDavidMurray. This Murray composition includes, among many other pointed political observations even more relevant today, a lament about the FL vote count denying Gore the Presidency, just as Trump gears up to do worse. #jazzsky #WSQ #jazz

#WorldSaxophoneQuartet: Political Blues (2006)

#jazzsky informs me it's #WorldSaxophoneQuartet co-founder David Murray's birthday. Here's a Murray composition

Life moves pretty fast, if you don't stop and listen to some #WSQ every once and a while, you'll miss something extraordinary*

Happy Sunday. #SundayJazz:

World Saxophone Quartet: Come Sunday (WSQ Plays Duke Ellington, 1986)

Beyond sublime.

David Murray (tenor) Hamiet Bluiett (bari) Julius Hemphill & Oliver Lake (alto)
