Not only a form of expression unique to black America, the blues is one of the major musical elements of jazz. Great jazzmen are often also great bluesmen with the gift of adapting the sound of the human voice to that of their instrument. In this album, comprising two CDs, Jacques Morgantini presents some of the most beautiful blues recorded by jazz musicians, a perfect blend of the lyricism of blues and the exuberance of jazz.
