Atlantic/Soulmusic.com (UK), 1970s. 7CDs

Baikida Carroll

Orange Fish Tears
Palm/Souffle Continu (France), 1974.
Easily our favorite album by Baikida Carroll – a wonderfully spiritual session cut in Paris, and done with this open-ended, spacious sound that seems to bring AACM improvisation into play with some of the global currents that were happening overseas at the time!

Blue Note/Third Man, 1970. (reissue)
Tremendous work from this lesser-known combo from Detroit – a session of work that builds strongly on the colors and changes explored by Miles Davis earlier in the 60s, but which takes things off into a whole new direction! (A Multidirection?) The horns on the record have incredible ... LP, Vinyl record album (Jazz LP)

Fred Anderson

Milwaukee Tapes Vol 2
Corbett vs. Dempsey, 1980.
A long-overdue second dive into the tapes of Fred Anderson's searing performance in Milwaukee in 1980 – a brilliant document of a group that was not recorded often, and who shine here in a way that really illuminates the genius that Anderson was capable of in the decade before the world began ... CD (Jazz CD)
Creative Funk/Essential, Early 70s.
A group who have plenty of the funk that you might guess from their name, but one who can also do a great job with a mellower cut too – as you'll hear in this wonderful collection of their too-short legacy on record! The group were formed in Harlem during the early 70s, and had a run that ... CD (Soul CD)

Matthew Halsall

Ever Changing View
Gondwana (UK), 2023.
A spiritual masterpiece from Matthew Halsall – a record that still has the beautiful trumpet work we've loved from the start, but which also shows just how much Halsall has been expanding his talents in search of new meanings, and new modes of expression!
