#NowPlaying Johnny Dyani - Afrika (SteepleChase, 1984).
South-African bassist Johnny Dyani recorded this awesome record with a septet that included extra percussion and steel drums.
I just got Third Set, the third and final installment of the #CedarWalton Quartet's live recordings in Copenhagen for #SteeplechaseRecords (1983). These guys were at the top of their game, and the recording has so much live presence. The sound is immediate, the performance is full of energy, and the #jazz is top-notch. Walton does precision surgery on the ivories with his performances, all without machines. #CedarWaltonQuartet #BobBerg #SamJones #BillyHiggins #vinyl
