    I used to have a Blue Note Records T-shirt back in the nineties. I'd meet the most interesting people wearing that thing. At least once I got a girlfriend from it (who happened to be a humongous acid-jazz fan - well, this WAS the nineties).

    At the time there was a local bar called the Blue Note, and she was the only lady I'd met who knew right off that the T-shirt referred to the record label, not the bar. Happy birthday to the label that gave us Horace Silver, Grant Green and Big John Patton. While jazz isn't my main interest, just something I dig every now and then, some of my most favorite jazz records in that genre just happened to be on Blue Note, and that's no crime.

    quite a few of my most favorite jazz records just happened to be on Blue Note, and that's no crime.

    Likewise my friend
