This year our seasonal Hanksgiving episode celebrates a musician of sumptuous elegance and sophisticated narrative and harmonic feel like pianist Hank Jones. As usual, we play a mix of albums that feature him as a leader, co-leader or side-man and renditions of his work by other musicians.

The playlist also features Ella Fitzgerald; Johnny Hartman; Abbey Lincoln; Donald Byrd; Warren Vaché; Thad Jones; Leo Parker; Rich Perry; Stan Getz; Coleman Hawkins; Guy Laffitte; Shai Maestro; Charlie Haden
