Derzeit spielt Robert Glasper eine 1-monatige Residenz im legendären Blue Note Club in New York. Den Auftakt gab er mitsamt seiner Band und T3 von Slum Village als J Dilla Tribute Special. Glücklicherweise wurde das Konzert vom Boiler Room aufgenommen und verfügbar gemacht. On repeat!
Die Erlöse des Abends gehen an die Save The Music Foundation und die J Dilla Music Tech Subvention.
Update: Hier noch ein weiterer Mitschnitt von Robert Glaspers Stevie Wonder Tribute.
Robert Glasper’s Stevie Wonder Tribute featuring Luke James
Robert Glasper is a leader of a new paradigm in jazz, with a career that has slipped successfully between a whole spectrum of styles, genres, & communities. This month (now hailed Robtober), he marks his return to the Blue Note–– one of his first stomping grounds–– for another month-long residency.
Live from the Blue Note, Boiler Room is broadcasting Robert’s J Dilla tribute: a live set of newly-versioned classic Dilla jams, performed alongside his band, & T3 of Slum Village.
The show will benefit Save The Music Foundation & their J Dilla Music Tech Grant. To learn more about the grant, visit savethemusic.org/jdilla. To support Save The Music’s work, donate at savethemusic.org/robertglasper.
