Gary Bartz is one of the greatest living saxophonists, with a career that has seen him play with McCoy Tyner, Art Blakey and Miles Davis. From 1969 he lead his own band and his 70s Milestone and Prestige albums contain many great tunes. We have selected the Andy Bey sung 'Celestial Blues', an all-time classic of spiritual jazz that appeared on his 1972 album NTU Troop album "Harlem Bush Music - Uhuru". This is paired with 'Gentle Smiles (Saxy)' sampled by A Tribe Called Quest in 1991 on their track 'Butter'.
