Yusef Lateef’s EASTERN SOUNDS 1991 PRESTIGE + COMPLETE & AUTOPHYSIOPSYCHIC SET

Description: Yusef Lateef’s COLLECTION AND IT'S OUR ONE AND ONLY SET FOREVERSTARTS WITH Yusef Lateef The Doctor Is In... And Out 180 GRAM AUDIOPHILE LIMITED EDITION LP180g High Quality Pressing!Re-mastering by Ray Staff at Air Mastering!In 1976, Yusef Lateef's as restless a spiritual seeker as there ever was in the field of music, revisited some of his earliest themes in the context of modern sonic frameworks: The Eastern modal and melodic frameworks of his Prestige sides, such as Eastern Sounds, Cry!/Tender, and Other Sounds, brought to bear in much more sophisticated, complex, and grooved-out ways -- after all, it had been 20 years or more. The groove referred to is funk and soul. Funk itself was mutating at the time, so Lateef's interpolation at the crossroads of all ports in the musical journey was not only valid in 1976, but also necessary.For this recording, he utilized an absolutely huge group of musicians, bringing them in for this or that part, or a sound, or a particular vamp. Some of those present were Kenny Barron, Ron Carter, Dom Um Romao, Al Foster, Billy Butler, Anthony Jackson, a five-piece brass section, and a synth player. Lateef, as always, was offering evocative glimpses of geographical, psychological, spiritual, and emotional terrain in his compositions, but not in predictable ways. There's the deep minor-key meditation on blues and evolving thematic variations on "Hellbound" that becomes a Latin funk tune; the airy, contemplative, and skeletal "Mystique," which may use a repeating rhythmic phrase but explores every inch of its margins via a string section and Lateef's flute solo; the smooth, urban, bluesy funk of "Mississippi Mud"; the completely out electronic musique of "Technological Homosapien" that becomes a series of synth squeals and an erratically tumbling bassline; and the wonderfully warped mariachi variation (sung in white-boy English) that featured the band playing bluesy hard bop over an age-old recorded track on "In a Little Spanish Town." It's a weird way to end a record, but then, it's a weird and wonderful record.Features:180g High Quality Pressing Re-mastering by Ray Staff at Air Mastering at Air Mastering, Lyndhurst Hall, London Musicians:Yusef Lateef, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, flute, oboe, bamboo fluteKenneth Barron, keyboardsRobert CunninghamRon Carter or Anthony Jackson, bassAl Foster, drumsBilly Butler, guitarDom Um Romao, percussionDana McCurdy, ARP 2600Leonard Goines, trumpetJoseph Wilder, trumpetJonathan Dorn, tubaJimmy Buffington, french hornJack Jeffers, tromboneDavid Nadien, violin on "Street Musicians" Selections:Side A:1.

He was starting to get pretty groovin' by 1968, opening his craft up to many influences beyond straight bop and eastern modes namely R&B, funk. This was a trend for many musical forms at that time. Yusef albums are mostly all consistantly strong, beginning with his bop efforts for Savoy in 1957 right through 1977's Autophysiopyschic. Just about every one of them are solid affairs, but that's where my personal interest fades. Still, that 20 years worth, a heck of a lot of music, all of consistantly high quality, a greatest hits would be highly subjective and fairly pointless. The only logical way to proceed is from Eastern Sounds, the Savoy period, Prestige, Impulse and Atlantic, "Complete" being one of his standout efforts for that label. Certainly not the first, but you really can't go wrong, Yusef Lateef is as real as it gets.PERSONNELYusef Lateef FLUTEHUGH LAWSON PIANOCECIL MCBEE BASSROY BROOKS DRUMS TRACKS LISTINGS - 1.Rosalie 5:28 2 In the Evening 6:41 3 Kongsberg 6:12 4 Stay with Me 5:21 5 See Line Woman 6:24 6 Brother 4:57 7 You're Somewhere Thinking of Me 3:23PLUS - Yusef Lateef's Detroit Latitude 42° 30' Longitude 83° ATLANTIC RECORDS SD 1525 RHINO PRESSED Label: Atlantic – SD 1525Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, CTHCountry: USReleased: 1969Genre: JazzStyle: Jazz-Funk Track listA1 Bishop School 3:00A2 Livingston Playground 3:37A3 Eastern Market 4:15A4 Belle Isle 3:12B1 Russell And Eliot 4:47B2 Raymond Winchester 2:35B3 Woodward Avenue 2:11B4 That Lucky Old SunWritten-By – Beasley Smith, Haven Gillespie7:25 Companies, etc.Pressed By – Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Terre Haute CreditsBass – Cecil McBeeConductor – William S.

Yusef Lateef’s EASTERN SOUNDS 1991 PRESTIGE RECORDS REMASTERED BY PHIL DE LANCIE interpolation into his music of traditions, modes, and instruments of Asia struck a sympathetic chord in the jazz audience. Perhaps its fascination lay in the apparently inextinguishable human need for mysticism, perhaps in the unending attraction of the sadness and beauty of minor keys. At any rate, there was considerable demand for Lateef’s many recordings of the late 1950s and early Sixties that reflected his fascination with things oriental. Eastern Sounds, in fact, was one of his best sellers. One of the warmest and most accessible soloists in jazz, Lateef is a master not only of conventional reed instruments but many unconventional ones. Here, using only tenor saxophone, flute, and oboe, he generates mystery and exoticism.
