'Note Bleu: Best of the Blue Note Years 1998-2005,' is a collection from Medeski Martin & Wood that spans the five ground-breaking albums that the improvisational trio (keyboardist John Medeski, bassist Chris Wood, drummer Billy Martin) has made for the label. MMW’s unique sound (which Esquire described as “tough, driving grooves [that] split the difference between jazz and funk”), and relentless touring ethos have earned them legions of fans throughout the world. Note Bleu will be released as a single-disc CD and as a double-disc CD/DVD Deluxe Edition with additional rare audio tracks, music videos, concert footage, documentaries, and photo galleries.
