Something Blue - Hope

Elmo Hope - 01 - It's A Lovely Day Today

Welcome to Something Blue. I'm Hairy Larry and I've got the Blues, for you.

Elmo Hope Trio - Blue mo
Sunna Gunnlaugs - Anima

All right now, we're enjoying some Jazz piano. Kicking us off we heard Elmo Hope play "It's A Lovely Day Today". Then he got all Bluesy with "Blue Mo". And then Sunna Gunnlaugs played her own composition, "Anima". Sunna Gunnlaugs is a contemporary Icelandic pianist and composer. She's really got something.

Elmo Hope was a great Jazz pianist who played in the fifties and the sixties. Here's "St. Elmo's Fire" and "Hot Sauce". Then we'll close this set with another Sunna Gunnlaugs original.
