An experiment in esoteric #cooljazz. Jimmy Giuffre's Western Suite (1960) is clarinet, guitar and trombone. Sinuous, woody improvisatised harmonies, no rhythm instruments, and barely perceptible rhythm. #jazznoisehere#jazz#jazzvinyl#vinyl#vinylrecords@jazz
Shrimp Boats (1978) is a comp of two Lionel Pillay bands. Side 1 is a single track with Basil Coetzee on one track (despite top billing, he's only on side 1). Side 2 is an electric group, with the great Sipho Gumede on bass and a front line of Barney Rachabane and Duku Makasi. There's a version of South African jazz classic Yakahal 'Inkomo and a rare cover of Weather Report's Birdland! #jazznoisehere#jazz#jazzvinyl#vinyl#vinylrecords#nowspinning@jazz#southafrica
If I could afford it I would only collect OG #bluenote records, and while still mostly gravitate toward them, the #tonepoet reissues are done so well they are hard to pass up as gap fillers. Love this one. What a lineup and session. #jazz#jazzrecords#jazzvinyl#records@vinylrecords
