Revolution Blues (feat. Oz Noy)

#65 in The Need To Know Badass Blues Instrumentals Series, Revolution Blues, features the wonderfully irreverent guitar playing of Oz Noy. By his mid twenties Oz was the king of guitars in his home country of Israel so, with little left to prove there, he headed to NYC. Gaining almost immediate notoriety for his rule breaking approach to Jazz, Oz enlisted the heaviest of heavies to accompany him. Will Lee, Reggie Washington, Vinnie Colaiuta, Dave Weckl are just some of the "cats" that have been Oz's regular sidemen for 10 albums over the last 25 years. He continues to dominate reader's polls and critic's choice lists and the list of artists that he has played with is truly insane! I couldn't decide who to list so, here is a link to his bio: http://www.oznoy.com/biography/ Enjoy! And just a note: I titled and uploaded this track several months ago...I had no idea just how relevant it would be.

There are a lot of organizations that need financial support right now as well as "thoughts and prayers" and social media post. Please put your money where your good intentions are:
