In this final episode of this season of VMP Anthology, we talk to Don Was about how the vibraphone has gone from a central piece of jazz big band to a semi-novelty and back again, the tumultuous middle years of Blue Note, and how signing young artists and letting them develop their own version of jazz remains a central purpose of Blue Note as it hits 80 years old.
