- The label’s co-founders, German immigrants who fled the Nazis, were more fans than businessmen. In an archival audio interview early in the film, we hear the label’s two co-founders, Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff, discussing their respective jazz epiphanies, which happened in Berlin around the mid-Twenties.
- Artists quickly recognized that music was Blue Note’s first priority. Saxophonist Lou Donaldson, whose bluesy, hard-grooving style helped to define one aspect of the label’s golden era-era sound, points out in the film that Lion and Wolff stood apart from many of their “cheap” record-company peers at the time.

- When label co-founder Francis Wolff started dancing in the studio, musicians knew that take was a keeper. Some of the film’s most charming scenes show musical soulmates Shorter and Hancock reflecting and swapping Blue Note lore.
