 Blue Note Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blue Note Records is a jazz record label, established in 1939 by Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff.
Cecil Taylor recorded two albums for Blue Note during the early part of his career, and Sam Rivers, Bobby Hutcherson and Larry Young also recorded albums which diverged from the "hard bop" style usually associated with the label.
Blue Note was by then recording a mixture of established acts (Rollins, Adderley) and artists who in some cases had recorded before, but often produced performances for the label which by far exceeded earlier recordings in quality (Blue Train is generally considered to be the first significant recording by Coltrane as a leader).

Blue Note's new label designs do not seem to have been placed on the new disqs as promptly as Columbia or RCA changed graphics on their new records.
Blue Note records, particularly Labels No. 1 and No. 2a, are as close to art as the recording process comes.
This label was used from the introduction of the Blue Note LP in 1951 through 1957.

 Bluenote
What was remarkable about Blue Note is that from the dawn of the LP era through the mid-1960's, Blue Note released approximately 350 albums of consistently high quality, both musically and sonically, including some of the landmark albums of modern jazz.
Among "serious" Blue Note collectors, there are two sorts of records which are in highest demand - monos and "deep grooves." The former is self-explanatory; the latter are records in which there is a concentric groove in the label, about two-thirds of the way from the center hole.
These are the great bargains in Blue Notes, often sonically in the class of the originals; if they have a fault it is with the thinner vinyl used compared to original pressings.

 Blue Note Jazz Photography Of Francis Wolff
If a jazz enthuasiast's listening discoveries were contemporaneous with the original release of the Blue Note albums mentioned in this book, he or she may have thought at the time that the photographs existed to promote the music through appearance on the album covers.
Blue Note Jazz Photography Of Francis Wolff documents the creative process and brings visual life to the musicians whose music has enriched the listeners' lives.
But those famous black-and-white photographs defined the image of Blue Note in its heyday as they were printed in dark blue or in duotones on the covers of the albums.

 Blue Note Soundings
Throughout the 1980s, Blue Note patrons were witness to a panoply of progressive sounds from bands on their way up, such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers and R.E.M., and bands on their way out.
The music concept of The Blue Note was not limited to blues or new wave or heavy metal.
But The Blue Note rocks on, not just as a music venue but as the scene of weddings, wakes and the occasional epochal celebration.

 HORACE SILVER: Retrospective (Blue Note)
Blue Note's new 4CD Retrospective covers most of the pianist's output for the label, and there are few tracks to be found that don't measure up.
It kicks off with three in a row from 1959's Blowin' the Blues Away--the joyous "Sister Sadie," the dulcet "Peace" (arguably Silver's finest melody), and the album's brisk title track.
The tracks on disc two truly exemplify one of the finest bands of the era.

"People say Blue Note was just a phase in hip-hop," Madlib explains, referring to the era when groups like A Tribe Called Quest and Gang Starr would sample the label's sounds.

Fresh, intricate arrangements could be heard on a Blue Note record while other labels more often recorded “blowing sessions,” a term used to describe a loosely assembled group of musicians often playing together for the first time.
It was a practice that would garner criticism, especially in the early 1960s when many Blue Note albums began to feature at least one “boogaloo” or song characterized by a funky beat.

The affable record executive is head of one of the best-known jazz labels in America, Blue Note Records.
The label has drawn criticism for some of its experiments, such as a hip-hop remix album by the group Us3 in the early 1990s.
