Jim Hall's debut on Roc-a-Fella Jazz is the product of a long-awaited collaboration with American pop legend John Oates.
"I've always really dug 'Maneater' - I really identified with the lyrics on a personal level," says Hall. "It was only a matter of time before John and I worked together to 'Make My Dreams Come True'. Plus, it gave me an excuse to grow my hair back."
Jim Hall - guitar; John Oates - guitar; Mike Stern - guitar; Hiram Bullock - guitar; James Brown - guitar; Liza Minelli - guitar (track 4 only).
Available now for $14.99, or for $199.99 from Mosaic Records in 30 years.

Album #4
Grover Washington, Jr.'s classic Mister Magic deserved to be re-released - and what better steward to present it to the public than Roc-a-Fella Jazz's new Heritage series? Grover and the label both agreed that the famous cover photo deserved a special new touch-up to celebrate - see if you can tell where it is!
Special thanks to Caroline Davis for the suggestion - it's a great look for you, Grover!
Available for only $3.68 per gallon at all Shell gas stations.
