Spanning a most significant period in jazz, Trilok’s fusion with the likes of Don Cherry, Pharaoh Sanders, Jan Garbarek and John McLaughlin are just some of the amazing musicians he has worked with and presented in this milestone release.
Trilok’s Tabla work on this release does not highlight his excellence but rather shows how he compliments other musicians creating a soundscape of jazz rather than indo-jazz as found with other musicians. For those of you unfamiliar with his work this would make for a great window into his world. Other recommended releases by Trilok are 1990’s ‘Living Magic’, ‘African Fantasy’ from 2000 and my particular fave ‘Miles_Gurtu’ from 2004. Either way you play it, there is some great music with this man behind it and in front – go explore the world that is Trilok Gurtu.
