Volume 5 of our shelf rifling dive into the deep Fruit Tree Records collection is a genre surfing run through some of the tracks that have excited and delighted over the past couple of weeks. These include tasty dives into Blues Rock, Americana, Jazz, Indie, Soul and Folk opening with an especially grooving Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers track, written by Wayne Shorter in a line up that also featured Lee Morgan from the 1960 album ‘The Big Beat.’ From that hot start, an avalanche of equally splendid tunes quickly follow.
