Pianist Robert Glasper closes his long Blue Note residency with a bang. This week, Glasper pays tribute to two influences who died way to young. Tuesday and Wednesday, the tribute's to trumpet great Roy Hargrove, who in addition to be being one of the best jazz players of his generation played a key role in Neo-Soul. And then, the rest of the week is devoted to hip-hop/Neo-Soul pioneer J Dilla, in my estimation one of the very greatest American musicians (in any genre) straddling the turn of the century — featuring T3 from Dilla's formative band Slum Village!
