VA - One Night With Blue Note [1985-2003]

Record executive Bruce Lundvall relaunched the defunct Blue Note Records label in 1985 under the parent label EMI Manhattan Records. To celebrate, Lundvall and Music Director Michael Cuscuna staged a concert on February 22, 1985 at Town Hall in New York City, bringing together some of the jazz legends associated with Blue Note over the years as well as some newly signed artists. The concert, featuring more than 30 of the world’s most revered jazz musicians in the form of all-star ensembles, is considered by many to be one of the most important nights in jazz history. The 3 hour-plus event was shot on 16mm film with multiple cameras. Director John Jopson prepared by studying the music from various live recordings, and then carefully plotting camera positions with Cinematographer Ernest Dickerson according to cues made from the sheet music. The film is known for its intimate close-ups of the musicians, showing their subtle signals to each other and acknowledgment of well-played riffs. A double album recording of the same name was released simultaneously with the film.

Many of the performers have passed away since this film was made, including Jackie McLean, Jimmy Smith, Woody Shaw, Walter Davis Jr., Art Blakey, Stanley Turrentine, Joe Henderson, Michel Petrucciani and Grover Washington Jr.
