“Information”
as to which tracks are on which of the four sides of vinyl is conspicuously
absent. Apparently, information is old fashioned, nowadays you are lucky to
know who’s album it is. You have to ask, then why tell us which record number
and side number it is? There’s the tell. Information does matter, that white
space is a modern conceit. Well, that’s how I read it.
Or
can’t.
On
first site, this is a strange album; the cover design has a large thumbprint on
a white background, with a piece of brown tape stuck on it giving the title and
the name Gilles Peterson. I have to confess it meant nothing to me and I
wondered whether my editor had sent it to the wrong reviewer! What a pleasant
surprise I had, the LP contains the music I grew up with. As an avid visitor to
The Marquee, The Flamingo Club and Ronnie’s Old Place in London, what a delight
to hear again the bands which were also presented in the Midlands, where I
live, by the Late Harry Flick.
I
find today’s jazz scene nothing like as stimulating as those times, there were
weekly sessions in Coventry and most other cities, where the musicians and
bands heard on this record performed to packed enthusiastic audiences.
On
the LP we realise just what a golden era the sixties and early seventies was
for jazz in the UK. The talents of the musicians on display are astonishing for
that time, or should I say, someone who did not know of them, should prepare to
be astonished. Michael Garrick has always had a good band and he is a very fine
pianist, the likes of Joe Harriott would surely have been an international jazz
figure if he had chosen the USA instead of the UK to move to from his native
Jamaica.
Ronnie
Ross must surely be the finest baritone player the UK has produced and Tubby
Hayes, I am amazed at the number of local musicians who are digging around in
record shops trying to find anything Tubby recorded. The example on this
record, with the superb Jimmy Deuchar on trumpet is one of the best and is
worth the price of the record on it’s own!
Don
Rendell I count as a friend, even though I have not seen him for a while, his
contribution to the UK jazz scene has been immense. He was a founder member of
the Johnny Dankworth Seven and has worked tirelessly in the cause of British
jazz. In more recent times, as well as performing up and down the country, he
has also been teaching in a London University, helping along a new generation
of jazz musicians. As Gilles Peterson says, Black marigold as another superb
track featuring Don, with trumpet player Ian Carr.
If
you are from the era, you will love this record, if you came in later, listen
to it and be prepared to be surprised at what you hear, A volume two is
mentioned, lets hope it comes out soon.

If
you find it, buy this album!

DeleteThanks Vitko and welcome back. I'm enjoying these ones a lot. I saw Michael Garrick's big band about 20 years ago, just walked into a gig , with no idea who he was.... but was, as they say, blown away. A nice way to start the morning.
ReplyDeleteNice. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHi Vitko,
ReplyDeletemore important than any record you serve to us is the fact that you are recovering to better health.
The records offer an interesting mix of tracks and promise a couple of "big" names. Download is a must. Tomorrow evening is booked for listening.
