NEW RELEASES Selling Points • First recording together in over 50 years by two of the greatest performers in the history of modern jazz.

• For over six decades, saxophone master James Moody has serenaded lovers with his signature song “Moody’s Mood for Love,” an improvisation on the chord progressions of “I’m in the Mood for Love.” In 1946, he joined the seminal bebop big band of Dizzy Gillespie, which included Milt Jackson, Kenny Clark, Ray Brown, and Thelonius Monk. His now-legendary 16-bar solo on Gillespie’s “Emanon” alerted jazz fans to an emerging world-class soloist.

• NEA Jazz Master and legendary pianist Hank Jones is one of the last surviving jazz greats. In over seventy years as a jazz pianist and composer, his playing style has embodied the essence of mainstream jazz, making him one of the most sought after and recorded jazz pianists in history.
