Billy Taylor Trio - I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free
In one of my lessons with her (2011-12) Geri Allen introduced me to this tune. Nina Simone and many others have covered it, here is a 1968 version of Dr. Billy Taylor with the great Grady Tate and Ben Tucker, the same trio that recorded the original in 1963. #Juneteenth #JazzSky

Bassist and composer Barre Phillips was born 27 October 1934, and he died 28 December 2024. This record made a big impression on me as a teenager, with Trilok Gurtu, Dieter Feichtner, and Terje Rypdal. Beautiful vibe on this track from 1978. #JazzSky

MASSIVE good news for trans people in the United States.
A federal judge has just granted class action status to transgender people looking to update their passports.
This means that very shorty, the window will open to update your passports with the correct gender marker.
