Sorry to hear that. Always enjoyed his music. Rest in peace.

Oh, dang. The Awakening happens to be one title from the top in the stack of digipacks next to me, too. The late great writer Harlan Ellison enjoyed Ahmad Jamal's works. RIP.
Sad news---playing The Awakening now.

"Bellows", from the Pittsburgh album (his home town)...

Spun "Ahmad Jamal" and "All of You," after hearing of his passing. I really need to explore more of his work. These two were fantastic.

This one connected with a few teen aged psychedelic rock addicts more than most of his releases ... Play it loud!

Dang. Just saw this. Saw him multiple times back in the day at D.C.’s Blues Alley and he never disappointed. RIP.
