Madlib - Slim's Return

It is possible that the name Madlib doesn't ring a bell for you, it didn't for me months ago but after listening to his work I can surely put him among the most talented people that made music as time flew away.
The album's named Shades of Blue and has on it some great jazz songs recorded at Blue Note Records in the past. The CD came out in 2003 under the label of Blue Note Records.
