Pleasantly surprised by this jazz/fusion LP, some absolute corker chord changes. My type of groove for now

From: Los Angeles
Genre: Jazz/avant garde/lo-fi/ambient
LP: Music for Saxofone & Bass Guitar (2018)
Interpretation of a 1980 Pharaoh Sanders composition (featuring, appropriately, Idris Muhammad on drums). Both Sams are amazing artists and band leaders on their own, and on this album (plus its two follow-ups thus far) they stretch their chosen instruments to their outer limits. Recorded mostly live, looped mouth sounds and taps on a mic drenched in reverb build the spare backing rhythms. Wilkes’s bass generates waves of tonal textures like fog on a city street. Gendel’s sax riffs are so alluring—effortlessly beautiful and endlessly hummable. Your friends who don’t like jazz will still love this. Your friends who do like jazz already know what‘s up.

One of my high school friends recommended this album in our group chat a few days ago and I wasn't prepared for how good this is??? And it's a live album??????? A must-listen if you're into jazz fusion!
Anyways listening to this feels like going on a lovely summer morning stroll with some pep in your step and the day is totally open. The sun is shining, sky's blue, a gentle and cool breeze hits just right, and you're feeling goooooooddddddd

Hitting my peak, when I held the door open for an old lady whilst attending my friend’s bar mitzvah. Downhill since….

The beat is infectious, confident lyrics, full of substance (!), inspired by the medley from last week’s Strictly Come Dancing opening number as broadcast in the UK.

Inspired by The Starters on Netflix and hype for hoops season around the corner. You know?!
