Blue Note 506
Released in 1944
Ukrainian-born jazz pianist Art Hodes spent most of his life in Chicago – but I share today a tune to celebrate this Ukrainian contribution to jazz, the unique connection between the U.S. and Ukraine, and to share a message to all those bravely resisting invading forces today in Ukraine: “Slow ‘Em Down”! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
