The JGC History series features specifically curated playlists to help trace the lineage of some of the most influential jazz compositions of all time.

Some notes about the composition from the JGC Real Book,

Composer: Dizzy Gillespie

Year: 1942

Origin: Introduced by Sarah Vaughan in 1944 as "Interlude".

Style: A combination of straight and swing feels, typically played at brighter tempos.

Form: A-A-B-A (32 Bars) [8-8-8-8]
The A sections are played straight with the exception of the final 2 bars, while the B section is swung. This arrangement commonly used for the head only with the solo section entirely swung.

Intro: The bassline that moves from bII7 - Imi6 is usually used to begin the performance, and there is also a counter-melody that goes along with it.

Send-off: After the head in a 12 bar send-off is used to lead into the solos. This is then followed by a solo break which is commonly 4 bars long. It is typically only used the first time around, although it is sometimes used to introduce every new soloist. This section is played entirely swung.

Shout Chorus: After all the melodic soloists are finished a shout chorus is sometimes included. The shout played during the A sections while the B section is left open to the drummer. Sonny rollins offers a concise interpretation of this arrangement on his recording from A Night at the Village Vanguard.

Key: D minor

Harmony/Overview: The harmony of this composition is mainly functional. The main theme revolves around the constant arrival of bII7 - Imi, which is essentially V7alt - Imi (tri-tone substitution). The bridge is identical to that of "Alone Together", taking place in the relative Major and moving from II - V of II before a II - V - I.

Recordings: This song has been recorded over 400 times to date and is a widely popular standard. The first recording comes from Sarah Vaughan in 1944 and was originally entitled "Interlude", featuring lyrics written by Sarah Vaughan and Anita O'Day. One of the earliest instrumental recordings of Dizzy Gillespie performing the piece comes a 1945 session with Boyd Raeburn and his Orchestra. Dizzy would later record and perform this piece many times throughout his career, leaving several particularly legendary recordings behind.

In Pt. 1 of this powerful reasoning, Yohance Gregory, son of legendary activist, author, and comedian Dick Gregory, challenges conventional thinking about Black liberation. Drawing on African history, spirituality, and the lessons passed down by his father, Yohance argues that true freedom begins with purpose, identity, and self-knowledge not simply changing external systems. He explains why understanding what we're fighting for is just as important as knowing what we're fighting against.

Throughout this conversation, Yohance explores Black liberation, African history, spiritual growth, identity, community, and the importance of building a foundation for future generations. Whether you're interested in Black history, personal development, Black empowerment, or the enduring legacy of Dick Gregory, this discussion offers timeless insights that remain just as relevant today.

Why Black liberation starts with purpose
Lessons Yohance Gregory learned from Dick Gregory
African history, identity, and self-knowledge
The role of spirituality in true freedom
Why many people are fighting the wrong battle

How did a relatively unknown military captain become one of the most discussed political figures in modern Africa?In this cinematic documentary, we examines the rise of Ibrahim Traoré, the history of Burkina Faso, and the struggle over sovereignty, security, economic independence, and Africa’s right to determine its own future.Born in the small town of Bondokuy, Traoré began not as a politician or member of a powerful dynasty, but as a geology student and soldier serving during one of the most dangerous periods in Burkina Faso’s modern history. His journey from the front lines to national leadership would eventually place him at the center of an international debate about military governance, Pan-Africanism, foreign influence, institutional strength, and national self-reliance.This documentary explores:* Burkina Faso’s history under French colonial rule* The revolutionary legacy of Thomas Sankara* The security crisis that destabilized the Sahel* Ibrahim Traoré’s childhood, education, and military service* The political upheaval of 2022* His rise from army captain to head of state* Burkina Faso’s changing relationship with France* The Alliance of Sahel States* Gold, agriculture, infrastructure, and economic sovereignty* The difference between revolutionary promises and lasting results* Why millions across Africa and the diaspora are watching his leadershipTo his supporters, Ibrahim Traoré represents a new generation determined to reclaim African sovereignty and build stronger, more independent nations. To his critics, his leadership raises serious questions about military rule, democratic institutions, transparency, and whether bold rhetoric can produce durable national progress.Marquett Burton approaches the story through the lens of history, leadership, civilization, and institution building—asking not merely what Traoré intends, but what must ultimately change for Burkina Faso’s transformation to endure.Because history does not judge leaders by applause alone.It asks:Did the people become safer?Did institutions become stronger?Did opportunity expand?Did the nation become more resilient?The final chapter of Ibrahim Traoré’s story has not yet been written.Continue the ConversationThis documentary connects to the principles explored in The Black Code, Marquett Burton’s educational framework examining leadership, economics, discipline, institution building, civilization, and Pan-African thought.Explore The Black Code Classroom at:SKOOL.COM/Marquett/ClassroomGreat civilizations are not built by spectators. They are built by disciplined students of history, principled leaders, and communities prepared to transform ideas into action.Do you believe Ibrahim Traoré can create lasting transformation in Burkina Faso, or will history judge his leadership differently?
