Yeah, the world needs this kind of music. His new album is on first listen, and it's worth your time.

I had a good dad, so I don't really relate to this song.

RIP Mr. Womack. I distinctly remember the first time I heard this song as I was in a movie theater watching Jackie Brown.

Some great jazz crossover albums were released in 2013, but none hit me harder than Gregory Porter's Liquid Spirit. I just got tickets to see Porter in Chicago next month, where he's opening for Jack DeJohnette, Joe Lovano, Esperanza Spaulding, & Leo Genovese. I think the last time I was this excited to see someone live, it was Keith Jarrett.
