In December 1969, Blue Note Records recorded several concerts of the all-star Jazz Wave tour. The resultant double-album included an exquisite version of "Body and Soul" by the Freddie Hubbard Quartet with Roland Hanna, Ron Carter, and Louis Hayes. Last year, we went digging in the Blue Note vaults and came up with another hour"s worth of great performances.
Upon hearing the music we found, Freddie Hubbard called it "some of my finest playing ever captured on tape. He became enthusiastically
involved in the song selection, mixing, and sequence of Without a Song: Live in Europe 1969, and was poised to help promote its release when
complications from a heart attack took his life on December 29, 2008.
