"When discussing the output of jazz recorded in Spain during the 1960s and 1970s, most conversations tend to simply list
Tete Montoliu
's discography and
Pedro Iturralde
's experiments in fusing jazz with flamenco. During these years, jazz didn't enjoy widespread popularity in Spain: local record labels didn't find the jazz market sufficiently attractive, and resources were largely directed towards the production of Spanish pop. Only this can explain the scarcity of releases during the period, especially when Spain is placed in comparison with countries like Italy or France, which were seemingly a lot more open to sounds originating from the other side of the Atlantic. This is even more pronounced if we bring in the United Kingdom, Germany, and certain Scandinavian nations into the equation. Along with Paris, these places became new homes for a great number of musicians who fled the United States in search of new opportunities. Nevertheless, a handful of albums and EPs exist that have remained unjustly ignored for decades, and which are in urgent need of rediscovery. These musicians helped pave the way for jazz in Spain, and are responsible for some of its brightest musical moments.
Fetén
brings together a selection of recordings made in Spain between 1961 and 1974. The tracks selected were originally released on records that have become impossible to find, and which, in most cases, have never been reissued. These are unique recordings spanning modal jazz, hard-bop and even avant-garde jazz by Spanish musicians such as
Mantequilla
,
Juan Carlos Calderón
,
Ricard Roda
and
Vlady Bas
, as well as by international jazzmen like
Dusko Goykovich
,
Lou Bennett
, and
Tino Contreras
. The selection is completed by the inclusion of a previously-unissued track -- a cover in a trio format of "Solar," a
Miles Davis
composition rescued from the master tapes and seeing the light now for the first time after being left out of the original edition of
Nits de jazz al Jamboree
, released in 1968 by the Edigsa label. Years of searches in market stalls and record fairs, trades with other collectors, phone calls to second-hand dealers, countless hours of online research, and a lot of dusty fingers have made it possible to bring together all the recordings presented here." --
Javi Bayo
. Includes 28-page booklet with notes and historic photos.
