Jazz on a Summer's Day

Venice is going to feel like summer (79 and sunny) and look like summer (I'm going sailing) this weekend.  


The 1958 Newport Jazz Festival documentary Jazz on a Summer's Day is a gem.  I first saw it at Luke's on NYE 2008, as he and I readied ourselves for a dance party at The Echo.  It's on Netflix streaming and YouTube in it's entirety.  Here's an excerpt with Thelonious Monk, lots of dapper hipsters, and purdy sailboats.
