| 0:18.9 | Daily Jazz advice coming at you Monday through Friday. That's right. We are not doing weekends. We're taking the weekends off. This is a new, a new development in the You'll Hear podcast. How are you feeling about it? I'm feeling pretty good about it. You know, we, we'd have a bit of a dip in the listenership in the weekends. And so. Not that we're checking that every 20 minutes. No, we don't really care about any of that stuff. But also, you know, we're on what, episode like 150 something now. So it's like, you know, it's time to rain it in as far as like the seven days a week. It's going to be tough. I've been missing you on the weekends, though. Yeah. Then Monday coming out. |
| 0:56.1 | Everybody says, oh, you guys must bundle this. |
| 0:59.4 | No, Peter and I meet every morning at 7.30 a.m. |

| 1:03.8 | So what are we talking about today? |
| 1:05.4 | So today we're going to talk about our seven favorite jazz labels. Ooh, I like it. Yeah. So, you know, I was looking up some, some Freddie Hubbard. I was actually doing research for a future you'll hear at episode. And I was looking up some Freddie Hubbard records. And you were like, oh, is that from the CTI era? And I was like, what the hell is CTI? And then I go to the CTI Wikipedia page and I'm like, I know all these records. How have I not like ever put this together that this is the label? And so we thought we'd do one of our seven favorite jazz record labels. You're going to stay tuned to see if CTI made the cut. Well, and I can answer your question. How did you not know it? Because you're young and you came up in the Spotify Apple Music Days apparently |
| 1:44.4 | where I'm not that yeah see the record labels I'm not that I did come into the CD the CD days |
| 1:48.9 | yeah and from my research CD I was way finished by the time I was around yeah and it might |
| 1:53.3 | it's possible it even got like Sony or Columbia or CBS CBS right yeah right right okay well let's |
| 2:00.7 | start out yeah I like your idea we'll see if it makes it. Yeah, you got the first one. Okay. First, I'm going to go with a controversial choice, an obscure choice. Blue Note records. Blue Note records. I mean, when you think of jazz, you probably think of Blue Note at some point. think so i mean i think even if you if you |
| 2:17.9 | grab someone on the street that hates jazz doesn't know what jazz is is upset by jazz is confused by |
| 2:23.5 | jazz or it's just mystified they're still going to make an association with blue note you know yeah |
| 2:29.0 | but what's interesting is you know a lot of people if you say something about blue note records or jazz |
| 2:33.9 | and like oh that's so cool like the blue note jazz club in new york and i'm like no actually it's got nothing to do with each other in fact there was a lawsuit between them and i think when the blue note club opened up in the 80s was it really there was like a thing so yeah oh man because everyone thinks oh the blue note club is so historic there was of course a blue note there was many blue notes around the country but there was the famous one in new york |
| 2:54.5 | i believe that was either midtown or uptown but the current blue note in on west third or west |
| 3:00.6 | fourth whatever that is in the village and now here we are talking about clubs instead of the record |
| 3:05.1 | label but the current location was like opened in the early 80s. |
