FREDDIE HUBBARD - A JAZZ GIANT
Freddie Hubbard - A Jazz Giant 1938-2008
Jazz legend Freddie Hubbard passed away in L.A. [december 29] – one of the most prolific trumpeters in the bebop, hard bop and modal styles from the 1960s to today -
Hubbard was a sideman to some of jazz’s most recognizable musicians including Bill Evans, Herbie Hancock, Hank Mobley, Dexter Gordon and Wayne Shorter. He also played with Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers.
Hubbard’s albums as a leader include Open Sesame, which he recorded on the premiere Blue Note record label when he was only 22. Other recordings include the albums Goin’ Up, Hub Cap and arguably his best album, Ready for Freddie.

R.I.P. Keep Diggin’!
This year 2008 is near finished with some bad news : recession, unemployment is growing, Mid-East still under fire, 8 years of a republican policy (until 2012 here in France). Also sad to see so much people die in total indifference all over the world, by the way I would like to dedicate this last post to all the homeless who die in the streets (especially in Paris at this moment which is very rough) all the families in the lack and last but not least civils and innocent Palestinians which has been strongly victims of a premeditated policy.
I Hope the Year 2009 will be a time for Peace, Unity Love and Having Fun ...
Toujours dans la transiition j'en profite pour dédier ce dernier post à toutes les personnes mortes dans une indifférence totale, celles et ceux qui ont perdus un proche ainsi que les familles dans le besoin ... en espèrant que l'année 2009 se présente sous de meilleurs auspices.
Happy New Year !
