A NEIL YOUNG SONG THAT APPEARED ON CASSANDRA WILSON’S
ACCLAIMED 1995 ALBUM NEW MOON DAUGHTER

Blue Note Re:imagined returns on September 30 with a brand new collection featuring fresh takes on music from the Blue Note Records vaults recorded by an exciting line-up of the UK jazz, soul, and R&B scene’s rising stars. Following the widespread international success of the first volume in 2020, Blue Note Re:imagined II once again infuses the spirit of the new UK jazz generation into the legendary label’s iconic catalog, balancing the genre’s tradition with its future and reflecting the melting pot of talent and diversity within the current scene.

The latest single from the album finds singer and guitarist Maya Delilah offering up a sublime cover of “Harvest Moon,” a Neil Young song that was recorded by Cassandra Wilson on her acclaimed 1995 Blue Note album New Moon Daughter. Delilah, a London-based graduate of the prestigious BRIT School, joins a diverse cast of artists on Blue Note Re:imagined II that also includes Yazz Ahmed, Conor Albert, Parthenope, Swindle, Nubiyan Twist, Ego Ella May, Oscar Jerome & Oscar #Worldpeace, Daniel Casimir, Theon Cross, Kay Young, Venna & Marco, Reuben James, Binker Golding, Cherise, and Franc Moody.

The album presents new interpretations of classic Blue Note tracks by Donald Byrd, Chick Corea, Grant Green, Chico Hamilton, Bobbi Humphrey, Norah Jones, Joe Lovano, Thelonious Monk, Marlena Shaw, and Wayne Shorter. Stream the Blue Note Re:imagined playlist featuring the originals and the re:imaginations.

“For more than eight decades the artists of Blue Note Records have continually pushed the envelope of contemporary music,” said Blue Note President Don Was. “Blue Note Re:imagined II once again honors that legacy by letting the UK’s most creative young artists reinvent the treasures of the Blue Note catalog through their own lens.”
