The album Hub-Tones by American jazz trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, released on Blue Note, was a clear indication that John Coltrane’s modal style was influencing Hubbard. Herbie Hancock played piano in this quintet. One of Blue Note’s greats. |

The 1984 debut Howard Jones album Human’s Lib spent an incredible 57 weeks in the UK Album Charts. Great hooks, great lyrics and great hair! Includes New Song, What Is Love? and Pearl in the Shell. Big soft spot for Mr Jones. howardjones.com |

How on earth can John Coltrane material this good remain unreleased for over 50 years? Both Directions at Once: The Lost Album recently released features Coltrane with McCoy Tyner, Elvin Jones, and Jimmy Garrison, perhaps the finest jazz quartet of all time. Stunning insight! |

The 1979 Donnie & Joe Emerson Dreamin’ Wild recorded in their farm studio, financed by their dad. Finally found acclaim in 2008…fascinating story! |
