READ MY PERSONAL TRIBUTE TO NAT HENTOFF (1925-2017) HERE.
Any attempt to compile a discography of albums whose liner notes are written by Nat Hentoff will be needing a team of ten devoted researchers who could go through thousands of not only jazz albums for major labels, but also material recorded for long defunct obscure ones and beyond jazz, for pop, easy listening, folk and country music. Any result, either as a comprehensive online database or an anthology of such writings in print would prove to be one of the most invaluable examples of music criticism and journalism in 20th century.
Here, with the permission of Mr. Hentoff himself, I started taking note of every jazz (and occasionally blues and folk) albums that I knew, and whenever possible, transcribing and adding the original notes to this blog.
