This week on Night Lights I'll highlight some of my favorite reissues and historical releases from the past year. We'll hear music from:

Pianist Denny Zeitlin's mid-1960s Columbia recordings

Saxophonist Jackie McLean's One Step Beyond (featuring Jackie's smoldering, adventurous early-1960s group with trombonist Grachan Moncur and vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson)

Stan Getz playing with an organ trio

A live date with lost-legend trumpeter Dupree Bolton

An until-now unearthed 1969 concert from Freddie Hubbard's European tour quartet...

and more.
