Odetta and the Blues is an album by folk singer Odetta, released in 1962.

...Odetta had been coveting a movie role based on Bessie Smith's life and felt that releasing a blues album would be a good way to transition her public in accepting her as a blues singer. She recorded her Riverside album and her first album for RCA within 2 weeks of each other in April 1962.

Recorded as the 1950s/1960s American folk music revival was getting underway, the album is notable for Odetta's use of a jazz band on the record. - Wikipedia

Ugetsu: Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers at Birdland is a live jazz album by Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers released on Riverside Records in October 1963. The album was recorded at Birdland in New York City.

The original LP had six tracks and producer Orrin Keepnews stated in the liner notes that "there were other performances taped that night that couldn't be fitted into the resulting album". When the album was released on CD, Keepnews added three new tracks that were recorded that night. The Jazz Messengers' tour in Japan had ended a few months before this live performance; then the band decided to play two tracks as a homage to Japan: the Cedar Walton composition "Ugetsu" (which Walton also released under the title "Fantasy in D" on his solo albums) and Wayne Shorter's "On the Ginza" - Wikipedia
