Listening to “Get Away Jordan” by Take 6 (one of the artists on the aforelinked list of essential jazz artists and albums) triggered a deep-seated memory of their performance in Spike Lee’s Do It A Cappella, a 1990 PBS Great Performances special directed by Lee, starring Debbie Allen (with a cameo by Samuel L. Jackson, fresh off Do the Right Thing) and featuring tremendous performances by Rockapella, True Image, The Mint Juleps, The Persuasions, Take 6, and Ladysmith Black Mambazo. This may be Take 6’s best version of their classic, and the Ladysmith Black Mambazo/Mint Juleps rendition of “In the Jungle” is stunningly beautiful. This may be my favorite “concert film” and a must-watch for fans of a cappella.
