Jorja is \u201cHonoured to be involved on this Blue Note album to rework St Germain\u2019s anthem \u2018Rose Rouge\u2019. And with such an array of wonderful musicians on the album, including my brothers Ezra Collective\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside Smith\u2019s reworking of Rose Rouge is Ezra Collective\u2019s version of Wayne Shorter\u2019s Footprints<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis project means so much to us in Ezra Collective. For us, Blue Note encapsulates everything that jazz is. Everchanging, evermoving with times and always swinging. From Herbie to Wayne, Glasper and Jose James. Across the decades it\u2019s been a constant source of inspiration, so to contribute to that is a dream come true.<\/p>\n<p>Footprints was a song we learnt as teenagers, and a song we\u2019ve haven\u2019t left alone since. It felt the perfect opportunity to pay homage to a hero of ours, Wayne Shorter, as well as document the journey we\u2019ve made as a band since then.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Blue Note<br \/>\nFormat: 7&#8243;<br \/>\nCat: 890923<br \/>\nReleased: 17 Jul 20<br \/>\nGenre: Jazz<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.juno.co.uk\/products\/jorja-smith-ezra-collective-rose-rouge\/780205-01\/?ref=motionfm\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>BUY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tracklist<br \/>\nSide 1<br \/>\n1.\tJorja Smith &#8211; &#8220;Rose Rouge&#8221; (6:04)<br \/>\nSide 2<br \/>\n1.\tEzra Collective &#8211; &#8220;Footprints&#8221; (6:23)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Legendary labels Decca Records and Blue Note have joined forces for Blue Note Re:imagined; a brand new collection of classic Blue &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":15450,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[16],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15449"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15449"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15449\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15451,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15449\/revisions\/15451"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15450"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15449"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15449"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15449"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
