On this episode of Visions , I primarily play music from the 1970’s. 
I have selections from several Black Jazz Records artists: Doug Carn , Walter Bishop, Jr. , Calvin Keys , and The Awakening . 
Black Jazz Records was a label that only released about twenty records between 1971 and 1975, and I’m still combing through their discography. 
I also play 70’s selections from Alice Coltrane , Herbie Hancock , and Bob James . 
I play 60’s selections from Sonny Clark and John Coltrane , and an 80’s cut from Steve Lacy . 
I play my new music discovery this week from Luke Titus Quintet , plus music from Nicholas Payton & Butcher Brown , and Irreversible Entanglements .
