About the album

In the early sixties, Swiss audiences desperately wanted to hear the bebop hero Max Roach and his magnificent energy, always invigorating his music mates and truly galvanizing the band. After just a few bars, the listeners were flabbergasted, watching and listening to these young virtuosos seemingly appearing out of nowhere. And the audience paid the quintet a real triumph on that night of February 2, 1960 in Lausanne.

This second part of the legendary concert of the Max Roach Quintet has never been released before and is another unique document of the Swiss Radio Days Jazz Series.
In den frühen sechziger Jahren wollte das Jazzpublikum in der Schweiz Max Roach, einen der damals grössten Bebop Schlagzeuger unbedingt hören, was in Lausanne am 2. Februar, 1960, Dank dem Produzenten Roger Huguenin möglich wurde. Das Publikum bereitete dem Quintett von Max Roach einen triumphalen Abend, dokumentiert in dieser Aufnahme des ersten Teils dieses fantastischen Konzertes.

Diese CD erscheint nun zum ersten Mal und ist ein weiteres historisches Dokument aus der Swiss Radio Days Jazz Serie.

Artist(s)

Julian Priester

After leaving Herbie Hancock’s Mwandishi band trombonist Julian Priester and synthesizer pioneer Dr Patrick Gleeson put together this now-legendary album in two sessions in 1973. Extending the experiments of the Hancock sextet this music can also be related to Miles Davis’s robust Afro-funkslanted electric group music of the period. Pumping bass ostinati, riffs and a big ‘tribal’ beat connect Love, Love to the music of Sly Stone and Funkadelic as well, while the shifting clouds of spacey improvising can also make a listener think of minimal music or Sun Ra. More than 40 years later this slice of proto-cyberfunk is still thoroughly enjoyable and timely.
