Songs That Shaped Me: Flea’s Jazz Favorites
Red Hot Chili Peppers’ bassist Flea will release his first jazz album, Honora, March 27. The album, which features both giants of the jazz genre and friends of his like Nick Cave and Thom Yorke, is the culmination of a life-long love affair with jazz. So, when he agreed to take me through a playlist of some of his all-time favorite jazz tunes, the list was deeper and more eclectic than I ever could have imagined.
