From 1970 — a ten-piece including Duke Pearson and Airto, diversifying the funk innovations of Bitches Brew into sunnier, accessible, freewheeling jazz, with fresh Brazilian flavours.

Expertly ecstatic disco-house treatments of Marvin’s Come Live With Me Angel and You Oughta Be Dancin’, by People’s Choice. Prime Leon Ware, prime Tom Moulton, brilliantly filleted and lovingly arranged on the plate.
In short supply. Don’t miss this.

Four portions of lonesome country, by Toody Cole from Dead Moon, and The Rats.

Backed with a heart-crushing Larry Marshall.
Double-headed demands for freedom and peace; both rawly heartfelt and sublimely delivered.
Two salvos of pure roots fire.
