Número especial monográfico dedicado al trompetista Roy Hargrove que nos dejó a principios de este noviembre, debido a la enfermedad que llevaba padeciendo desde hace años.

Roy fue uno de los llamados "Young Lions" a finales de los 80, una generación de jóvenes talentosísimos músicos de jazz que servían de puente entre la mejor tradición jazzística y las corrientes de jazz más modernas. Además de Roy se podían encontrar entre los Young Lions músicos como Joshua Redman, Christian McBride, Branford Marsalis o Joe Lovano entre otros.

Con una estupenda carrera bajo su nombre en que la sombra del Hard Bop y del Be Bop está siempre presente a través de corrientes más modernas como el Neo Bop o incluso el R&B, el Soul Jazz, el Hip Hop o el Funk a través de sus RH Factor. En este Especial recordaremos su figura y música recorriendo alguno de sus trabajos más icónicos, bajo su nombre y también algunas de sus incontables estupendas colaboraciones.

Gracias por la música Roy, nos veremos seguro en el otro lado.
