various artists - Soho Scene '61: Jazz Goes Mod / 2CD set

2017 CD collection.

This is the latest of a terrific series of classic 1960’s British jazz… digging a good deal deeper into the jazz side, and, moreover, offering the considerable bonus of rare as hen’s teeth UK jazz 7″/EP and LPs with a second CD of American jazz…Rounding off an excellent overview of the club scene are the terrific black and white photos and these capture the atmosphere to perfection. Extensive liner notes come courtesy of Paul ‘Smiler’ Anderson. A fascinating insight into the kind of music that was played in the hipper clubs of the era… A good, if expensive, time to be a 1960s jazz devotee. Tim Stenhouse UK Vibe
