Notes
The track 'Catto' was played in recognition of the death of the vibraphonist Bobby Hutchinson and also Ruby Van Gelder, the great Jazz recording engineer.

Outside of Jazz, there was also the departure of Prince Buster. A UK Parliamentary Early Day motion records the following.
"That this House notes with sadness the death of the legendary Jamaican singer, songwriter, producer, boxer and musical pioneer Prince Buster on 8 September 2016; further notes that he broke many taboos, including becoming the first Jamaican artist to make a significant impact in British music, and paved the way for others to follow; recognises that his considerable legacy will endure for many decades to come; and notes that he will always be remembered as the first King of Jamaican music."

His ground breaking track 'Al Capone' can be heard here.
