WAZ-Jackson Scoring NBC’s ‘Bluff City Law’

You’d think that a story about Memphis would a musical score made in Memphis. Music made at such places as Stax Records along with Sun Records. There was a lot more to the music in Memphis other than Elvis, Roy Orbison, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash and Carl Perkins. There was Otis Redding, Booker T. & the MG’s, Issac Hayes, Sam and Dave, Howlin’ Wolf and Wilson Pickett just to name a very few.
LOVE THE MUSIC AT END OF BLUFF CITY-LAW BY WAZ JACKSON, HOW DO I FIND MUSIC BY HIM ESPECIALLY ONE AT THE END OF SHOW????
Really surprising that the snippets of great music in the show isn’t “pure” Memphis! Still good, though. I’d like to hear more.
