Sax player, song writter, band leader (Love Trio, Big Band…), record producer (Nublu!), owner of Nublu Jazz Club in New York downtown,  Ilhan Ersahin is at first a real music lover, who never stops to connect people. And a serious crate digger. Look at his Top 5 songs, for these days (spring 2014!). 

Bob Marley & Peter Tosh

Concrete jungle

“I just first today saw the film/documentary about Bob Marley, the one that came out a year or so ago. It just reminded me again about how amazing that band was. Those backup up vocals by Peter tosh and Bunny, seriously amazing, inspiring and beautiful.”

Keith Richards & Bobby Keys

Somewhere Over The Rainbow

“I love bootlegs ! I just got this track on a vinyl bootleg by Keith Richards. I knew this recording but to listen to it on vinyl. Such a cool take, and Bobby Keys, he is one of the reasons I started playing sax.”

Miles Davis

Intégrale

“It’s simply impossible to choose one song from the man. It’s just everything he did is historic. So daring so creative. Crazy beautiful music.”

Serge Gainsbourg

Ballade de Melody Nelson

“I just love this album. I can listen to it forever. Jane Birkin is my guest on one song, and that record is totally inspired by this. I love Serge’s music in general but this album just kills me. And I love that box set they released 3 years or so ago. Amazing collector stuff.”

Rolling Stones

100 Years Ago

“I dont know why but I just love this song. It makes me feel New York city somehow. I guess it has to do with my teenage years… I love how they in that time period mixed really good songwriting with great jams. I love that kind of song forms.”
