At 00:00:19,811, Character said: Motif down more.

4
At 00:00:36,203, Character said: You go, too.
When you cue your bridge,

5
At 00:00:38,247, Character said: you can solo through that
while Marcus plays the melody.

6
At 00:00:40,499, Character said: OK.

7
At 00:00:41,166, Character said: And maybe
the second time around,

8
At 00:00:42,876, Character said: if you want, you can jump in
on the melody if you want.

9
At 00:00:45,337, Character said: I'll play it once or twice and
then you can pick up.

10
At 00:00:47,381, Character said: Cool.

11
At 00:00:50,300, Character said: We put together a Blue Note
super group with Robert Glasper,

12
At 00:00:54,221, Character said: Ambrose Akinmusire,

13
At 00:00:56,306, Character said: Marcus Strickland,

14
At 00:00:58,183, Character said: Lionel Loueke,

15
At 00:01:00,185, Character said: Kendrick Scott

16
At 00:01:01,687, Character said: and Derrick Hodge.

17
At 00:01:04,147, Character said: I was at the first show they
played at Monterey Jazz Festival

18
At 00:01:07,442, Character said: for the 75th anniversary.

19
At 00:01:09,653, Character said: It was music that...

20
At 00:01:11,822, Character said: It had a sound to it, you know,
that sounded like Blue Note.

21
At 00:01:20,998, Character said: Blue Note has a history
of so many amazing artists

22
At 00:01:23,417, Character said: that have recorded
on that label.

23
At 00:01:25,127, Character said: Every great pianist
has recorded on that label!

24
At 00:01:29,673, Character said: But what I try to do
is not think about that

25
At 00:01:34,094, Character said: when I'm trying to do my thing

26
At 00:01:36,388, Character said: because it could be
so intimidating.

27
At 00:01:38,682, Character said: Blue Note, to me,
is a label of innovators,

28
At 00:01:44,813, Character said: of game changers.

29
At 00:01:55,073, Character said: If you really chart the history
of Blue Note Records,

30
At 00:01:57,743, Character said: every decade, the artists
that they signed to the label

31
At 00:02:00,871, Character said: turned the music world
upside down.

32
At 00:02:07,210, Character said: Those artists reflect the times
and what's going on.

33
At 00:02:11,173, Character said: As soon as I put on the record,
I'm just transported

34
At 00:02:13,800, Character said: to a certain time
or a certain feeling

35
At 00:02:16,345, Character said: or a certain understanding
of the world.

36
At 00:02:35,864, Character said: Blue Note caught
what Bud Powell was doing,

37
At 00:02:39,743, Character said: it caught a lot of stuff
that Miles was doing.

38
At 00:02:41,828, Character said: - It caught their humanity...
- Yeah.

39
At 00:02:44,748, Character said: ...that's within the music,
and hope and freedom.

40
At 00:02:50,754, Character said: A lot of the artists that found
their home at Blue Note,

41
At 00:02:54,049, Character said: understood that we all had
the survival situation,

42
At 00:02:58,095, Character said: survival in common, and that
came out through their music.

43
At 00:03:04,518, Character said: On the surface, you hear
an amazing musician performing.

44
At 00:03:08,939, Character said: But the fight,
the internal struggle,

45
At 00:03:12,609, Character said: that familiar way of fighting
through the instrument.

46
At 00:03:16,655, Character said: Later on, when my generation
hears it, like,

47
At 00:03:19,199, Character said: "Wow, why does this feel
like we own it?"

48
At 00:03:21,993, Character said: "Why does it speak to me
in such a way?"

49
At 00:03:44,641, Character said: OK, you ready?

50
At 00:04:04,995, Character said: The one thing
that all the greats did was

51
At 00:04:08,498, Character said: never let go of who they are,

52
At 00:04:10,208, Character said: never turn away from who
they are and their experiences.

53
At 00:04:13,253, Character said: 'Cause your experience and what
you've been through in your life

54
At 00:04:16,298, Character said: makes you sound
the way you sound.

55
At 00:04:24,806, Character said: Most of the great art comes out
of messed-up situations.

56
At 00:04:29,269, Character said: You just need something

57
At 00:04:30,729, Character said: to be released from that,
to go somewhere.

58
At 00:04:35,108, Character said: That's where jazz is
born out of.

59
At 00:04:36,693, Character said: Hip hop was born out of that.

60
At 00:04:38,612, Character said: So that's what we have
to still do today.

61
At 00:05:37,796, Character said: Nowadays, with what's going on
in the world,

62
At 00:05:40,090, Character said: I think it's forcing people
to tap into that realness,

63
At 00:05:43,844, Character said: that experience
really right from there.

64
At 00:05:57,691, Character said: A lot of this music has to do
with how we feel about America

65
At 00:06:02,112, Character said: and how we came
from seeming to progress

66
At 00:06:07,784, Character said: to going back to an era
that we fought to get away from.

67
At 00:06:25,927, Character said: A lot of that feeling,
that kind of frustration,

68
At 00:06:29,472, Character said: some of that's in the music,

69
At 00:06:31,099, Character said: along with
all the hopeful stuff.

70
At 00:06:43,820, Character said: The music is only a tool
to express what's inside.

71
At 00:07:18,897, Character said: Being an African-American,

72
At 00:07:20,982, Character said: the music itself was
a special statement

73
At 00:07:23,526, Character said: and it is a special statement.

74
At 00:07:26,488, Character said: To me, jazz represents freedom
in two different kind of ways.

75
At 00:07:31,743, Character said: You can be an individual
inside of the music,

76
At 00:07:34,412, Character said: but still helping
with the whole.

77
At 00:07:56,810, Character said: That's a fade, anyway.

78
At 00:07:58,687, Character said: Whoo!

79
At 00:07:59,229, Character said: Let's do one more.

80
At 00:08:00,647, Character said: And this time, when you cue
yourbfidgeu.

81
At 00:08:03,608, Character said: Take 22.

82
At 00:08:05,235, Character said: 23. Take 23.

83
At 00:08:08,113, Character said: You're listening to
the 'Scope of Jazz' on WBAI FM

84
At 00:08:12,492, Character said: and our guests tonight are
AI Lion and Frank Wolff

85
At 00:08:14,703, Character said: of Blue Note Records.

86
At 00:08:16,079, Character said: First of all, AI,
the usual opening question,

87
At 00:08:19,332, Character said: the genesis
of your own beginnings

88
At 00:08:21,626, Character said: as someone interested in jazz?

89
At 00:08:23,795, Character said: It happened in about 1926,
in Berlin, Germany.

90
At 00:08:32,095, Character said: My mother brought a record home

91
At 00:08:34,139, Character said: and I was very much impressed
with what I heard,

92
At 00:08:36,766, Character said: not knowing that it was jazz
or what it was all about.

93
At 00:08:40,687, Character said: But I g***t very interested
in the record.

94
At 00:08:44,983, Character said: And, Frank, what was
your parallel experience?

95
At 00:08:47,402, Character said: - When did you first hear jazz?
- In Berlin.

96
At 00:08:49,863, Character said: And my recollection is that
I liked the music tremendously,

97
At 00:08:54,617, Character said: but I didn't understand it.
I couldn't follow it.

98
At 00:08:57,662, Character said: But I just liked it.

99
At 00:09:13,553, Character said: Well, they both came over
from Europe.

100
At 00:09:15,430, Character said: They were boyhood friends and...

101
At 00:09:19,142, Character said: once, or twice maybe,

102
At 00:09:22,145, Character said: yes, they went back to
those times and why they left.

103
At 00:09:25,190, Character said: They referred to
what it was like.

104
At 00:09:28,068, Character said: Twice they mentioned it,
in all that time I knew them.

105
At 00:09:32,238, Character said: And it was just brief mentions.

106
At 00:09:35,575, Character said: They were looking for freedom,
of course.

107
At 00:09:38,078, Character said: You had to be a fool
to have ignored that.

108
At 00:09:58,723, Character said: That's why they understood,

109
At 00:10:00,809, Character said: gave so many cats a chance.

110
At 00:10:03,770, Character said: And cats gave them a chance
as well. Trusting them.

111
At 00:10:12,987, Character said: I felt the music.

112
At 00:10:14,948, Character said: And not knowing, actually,
what made me feel it.

113
At 00:10:18,701, Character said: It must have been the beat and
the way the music came about,

114
At 00:10:21,538, Character said: came across to me.

115
At 00:10:24,457, Character said: And I was so impressed that
I felt I would like to go out

116
At 00:10:28,378, Character said: and make some records myself
with them.

117
At 00:10:30,713, Character said: - For your own enjoyment?
- For my own enjoyment, yes.

118
At 00:10:34,634, Character said: That's how it started.

119
At 00:10:40,140, Character said: They were fans.
They were rabid fans.

120
At 00:10:43,726, Character said: I think they were just records
that they wanted to hear,

121
At 00:10:46,396, Character said: so they decided
they were going to make them.

122
At 00:10:48,398, Character said: And they didn't know anything
about making records.

123
At 00:10:51,359, Character said: And I don't think they ever lost
the purity

124
At 00:10:54,779, Character said: and the innocence
that came with it.

125
At 00:10:57,574, Character said: I think that they understood
the value

126
At 00:11:00,201, Character said: of...
