New Jazz Releases For Your Consideration

[Baggawire]

A couple of vinyl remasters from the original analogue tapes courtesy of the ubiquitous Kevin Gray just released on the Craft label. The heavily orchestrated, often sampled prog-jazz of David Axelrod's "Heavy Axe" and the incredibly funky "Purdie Good!" by one of my favourite drummers Bernard Purdie.

Edit. Sorry, this should come under "Old Jazz releases for your consideration".

My favourite Pretty Purdie video below, doing the Purdie Shuffle as on Gaucho



And an addictive tune you can't get out of your head - Equipoise by Stanley Cowell

A trio of re-releases originally on the Prestige label incoming from Craft Recordings' Jazz Dispensary series remastered from the original analogue tapes by Kevin Gray (that man again - he must be coining it in!).


The Idris Muhammad and Leon Spencer LPs contain several excellent cover versions, ID's version of James Brown's "Superbad" being a particular favourite of mine.

Where do you pre-order these from in the UK?

This is a brand new release, just listened to it on Qobuz. It sounds like it was recorded yesterday, stunning
