Free Shit Friday - The Jazz Singers


This week's Free Shit is a copy of The Jazz Singers, a jazz collection offered by the Smithsonian as a companion to the documentary of the same name.

This is a fabulous collection. From Billie Holiday to Blind Willie Johnson, all the greats are represented, and the collection is a joy to listen to.

So why is it in the Free Shit pile? Well, because the Smart Man and I choose to manage our media as electronic content. Most of my physical media was given away to the Good Will after it was loaded to my hard drives, but this collection is expensive enough, and awesome enough, to merit its own place in the pantheon of give-aways. Plus I can think of several frequent visitors to this space who would thoroughly enjoy and appreciate this collection.

Da rules.
