A very cool record – not the blues rock album you might expect from the group's name, although there's definitely some bluesy influences – but instead one of those really weird mixes of modes that you'll find in the best Uni groups of the period!

A soul jazz masterpiece – and one of the rarest albums on the Jazzland label! Tenorist Joe Alexander has a mean, raw tone on the set – clearly influenced by the early 60s soul jazz generation, but also with some nicely off-beat tones that give him a really unique feel.

Classic MPS session by funky pianist Monty Alexander!

Another soulful set of jazz standards that pairs the great Lorez with a group led by Gildo Mahones.

A great album from the late 70's, featuring the excellent jazz vocalist backed by a totally tight group led by Gildo Mahones.
