Hi everyone. This really is a recommendation --- but it's also a cry for help, because I can't track down the recording!
I used to have an incredible recording of "I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free" in my collection. It was a live recording, instrumental, maybe just performed by a trio: piano, drums and bass. You can really hear the energy in the room; the solos are cheered heartily throughout, and at the end of the song, the crowd erupts with enthusiasm. I'm sure it's well-known --- I've heard it on jazz radio stations a couple of times, and it's such a work of beauty, it's impossible that a true jazz fan could hear it and forget about it.
I haven't listened to it for years and years now, but I can still hear it going around in my head! Can anyone suggest anything?
Thanks in advance,
Jamie.
