After a few weeks during which we’ve delved into the legacies of Cassandra Wilson, Stevie Wonder and Dave Holland, we’re back to our usual format: plentiful of new releases, where the borders between jazz, global music, electronics and improvisation from all over the world become pleasantly blurry—and the only real requirement is curiosity.

The third and final part of our celebration of 50 years of Stevie Wonder’s "Songs in the Key of Life"—with more jazz renditions of this timeless masterpiece.

Stevie Wonder’s cult classic may not be a jazz album, but its jazz connections run deep—from Herbie Hancock, Dorothy Ashby, George Benson, Glenn Ferris, and Bobby Humphrey involved in its recording to Alice Coltrane, Chick Corea, Quincy Jones, David Sanborn, and Lenny White among the influences acknowledged in the liner notes. No wonder its songs have inspired hundreds of jazz renditions—and here's the second part of our playlist featuring some of the best, following the sequence of the original record.

Fifty years after Stevie Wonder released "Songs in the Key of Life", we celebrate the anniversary song by song, in the exact sequence of the original double LP and the related "Something’s Extra" EP—with one twist: every track is a jazz rendition.

A musical remembrance of Cassandra Wilson and a voice that made even experimental music sound sensual and tangible, and turned old tunes into something modern, when not futuristic.

On one record, Cassandra Wilson could sound like the deepest Mississippi blues singer; on another, she could be immersed in the most advanced rhythmic ideas of M-Base; and then she could walk into an R&B session with Luther Vandross or The Roots and sound completely at home. This playlist only scratches the surface of that extraordinary artistic versatility.

A retrospective built around the adventurous spirit that ran through Cassandra Wilson’s music, from her formative years in the M-Base orbit to her later work at the crossroads of jazz, blues, soul, R&B and beyond.

Something traditional, something experimental, something live, something in the studio—and plenty of fun in between, for a selection designed to please many palates.
