SFJAZZ Hotplate is a monthly concert series at the Joe Henderson Lab featuring Bay Area’s most gifted musicians re-imagining a famous recording of a jazz legend. The 2nd Thursday of every month, Hotplate aims to show another side of SFJAZZ, an informal setting where you can drop in for a drink and hear some of the best jazz the local scene has to offer. Make sure to show up early for each set as DJ Pat Les Stache spins some of the legend’s best-known tracks before the live music begins. This is a seriously fun jazz hang and the joint is always packed!

The Shape of Jazz to Come is the third album by jazz musician Ornette Coleman, released on Atlantic Records in 1959. It is his debut on the label, and his first album featuring his working quartet. The recording session for the album took place on May 22, 1959, at Radio Recorders in Hollywood, California. Two outtakes from the session, “Monk and the Nun” and “Just for You,” would later be released respectively on the 1970s compilations Twins and The Art of the Improvisers. The Library of Congress added the album to the National Recording Registry in 2012.
