Sax, Soul & the New Jazz Frontier

Who is this collection for?

Ideal for a broad-minded jazz collector comfortable spanning bebop through soul-jazz to early fusion; several titles (Miles Davis, John McLaughlin, King Curtis Live at Fillmore West, Jazz Samba) are genuinely significant records.

Collection Overview

A broad, jazz-forward set ranging from bebop history (Pure Genius with Clifford Brown/Max Roach/Sonny Rollins, a Charlie Parker compilation, Jazz Samba) through soul-jazz/R&B saxophone (Ace Cannon, Gene Ammons, Sil Austin, King Curtis, the tenor battle Very Saxy) to early jazz-fusion and crossover (Miles Davis, John McLaughlin, Herbie Mann's reggae-tinged LPs).
