Lyrics

Blue Note Interlude

[Freddie Hubbard]

"Blue Note

Alfred Lion and Frank Wolff"

[Steinski]

Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff, two German immigrants

Who founded a jazz record company in 1939

That became very famous in its genre

Unlike any other jazz label

Blue Note Records influenced the evolution of music

In sound, style, and technical standards

Each of the Blue Note recording sessions

Was documented by the photographs of Francis Wolff

Alfred Lion's vision of music

And Francis Wolf's clear view of the recording sessions

Are a legacy of the uniquely creative achievement

That continues to this very day
