Fill out the survey and you may have lunch with Blue Note records. Dear Friend: This is a special year for fans of Blue Note Records. The label turns 70, and we are celebrating its legacy with a series of anniversary events and releases throughout 2009. This year is also personally important for me, as I am marking my 25th year as president and CEO of Blue Note. Though there is much to celebrate, it's no mystery that jazz is facing a new set of challenges. Even apart from the dreary economy, the music industry is in a period of flux, and no one can predict what will come next. Many of the old ways we made, experienced and shared music are changing. Those of us who love this music must stay nimble and adapt in order to keep jazz vibrant in the years ahead. That's why I am asking for a few minutes of your time. The survey below will help me and my colleagues here at Blue Note better understand your interests and how we can serve you better. It should take less than 15 minutes to complete. As a thank you, I would like to take you out to lunch. We will be selecting one person from the New York area at random to have lunch and talk jazz with me in Manhattan. Ten other randomly selected winners will receive "The Treasures of Blue Note ," a set of 12 CDs and vinyl LPs from our catalog. It includes masterpieces by John Coltrane , Wayne Shorter , Herbie Hancock and Art Blakey . These are some of the records I remember buying when they first came out, and it's a pleasure to make them available to you again. You and I share a love for the greatest music on Earth. No matter what happens in the music industry, I want to ensure that Blue Note can keep delivering the finest in jazz for another 70 years. Thank you for your help with this survey. Keep swinging,
