Pendulum by the Mike Taylor Quartet, released on Columbia in 1966 as part of their Landsdowne series.
Kieron Tyler wrote for the Arts Desk:
"...Taylor’s piano appears to be mathematically structured with, at times, a slight undertone edging towards Bossa Nova territory. What’s disconcerting is the lack of repetition of phrases, a constant roaming through a restricted scale and short sections of rhythmic punctuation on the keyboard. Melody and a linear through-line (following such, or returning to such) do not seem to be the point. On Taylor’s own material, beyond the drums, structure is provided by collating back-to-back rhythm-based sections; each of which is different from the other. It’s like free jazz, were it not improvised."
