Rec'd on 🎸 7/29: WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE MUSIC DOCUMENTARY?
Jazz on a summer’s day (1958)
1958 Newport Jazz Festival. Beautifully documented by fashion photographer Bert Stern. Ft. all of the jazz legends, crowds, outfits … and most importantly, Anita O’Day’s iconic performance of Sweet Georgia Brown and Tea for Two. After reading her autobiography I learned that she was high on heroin at the time. Her performance, specifically, is one of my comfort watches on YouTube.

Blossom dearie: once upon a summertime
Being raised on jazz (mostly cool and modern), vocal jazz was a bit of a departure for me. If you like the soft dreamy feel of Chet Baker with an influx of whimsy and humor, check out Blossom Dearie. She’s absolutely charming and a little bit wistful!

"beautiful women and jazz music"
My old-time/folk (very much not jazz) band played a show at a brewery on the patio, and some older guy leaned over to his buddy and said, "Now this is the life. *gestures* Beautiful women and jazz music."

Film screenings at National gallery of art
Multiple reasons to visit NGA, but the free screenings are among the top for me. Thought provoking programming that is usually tied in some way to ongoing exhibitions. I don’t watch trailers so I love to go in there without any expectations. Shout out to the lush red velvet seating - so cozy.

JUANA MOLINA - documentary (2004)
Juana Molina is one of my musical heroes and I love her approach to life and art. This is a short and sweet documentary (22 min) that gives a glimpse of her home and family life, creative practice, and playful sense of humor. I can’t wait to see her perform later this month.
