RELEASE DATE
6/14/2010
Before his career defining records on Arista/Novus in the 80s and 90s, jazz and fusion guitarist
Michael Gregory Jackson
recorded his debut for ESP-Disk'. The sessions, recorded in New York, Connecticut and Los Angeles in the summer of 1976 are wildly meditative and personify the seventies laid-back vibe. A trio of soft, lilting melodies set the mood;
David Murray
on tenor sax,
Oliver Lake
on flute, and the album's leader,
Michael Gregory Jackson
on acoustic guitar. The unfolding stream of ideas make these improvisations vital today; arhythmic strumming, an enchanted R&B vocal from Mr. Jackson, avant percussive clatter, processed electric guitar, and fiery horn lines over timpani and flute. Composer and trumpeter
Wadada Leo Smith
, cited as a major influence by Mr. Jackson himself, is featured on the album.
