213: “Hoe Down” by Oliver Nelson

August 9, 2011 Leave a comment

Oliver, Oliver!Oliver Nelson had a plain name and an ornate soul. He played, arranged, composed, played, breathed, and woke up most every morning between his birth on June 4th, 1932 and his ceasing to be on October 28th in the year of our Lord 19 and 75.

Enjoy “Hoe Down” from what many consider his greatest work, The Blues And The Abstract Truth (1961).
