Ernst Reijseger, Billy Brooks, Rob Mazurek, Joe Harriott & More New Releases [Mondo Jazz 128-1]

This week we hit the mother lode, with plenty of undiscovered, or re-discovered, jazz ore, in the form of unreleased live recordings of Joe Harriott and the re-release of "Windows of the Mind" by the skoonum player, and Ray Charles alum, Billy Brooks, respectively. Among the new gems projects of the acoustic (Roots Magic; Reijseger, Fraanje, Sylla [pictured]; Federica Michisanti), electro-acoustic (Rob Mazurek with the Exploding Star Orchestra; Dinosaur) and electric (Guillaume Perret; Mach 6) amalgam. And, to wrap things up, the exciting finds of two Franco-American duos of sonic surveyors, featuring members of the cult band The Reyclers: Noël Akchoté-Bill Frisell and Fred Hersch-Benoit Delbecq. Detailed playlist at https://spinitron.com/RFB/pl/11677159/Mondo-Jazz (up to Fred Hersch and Benoit Delbecq). Happy listening. Photo credit: Krijn van Noordwijk (courtesy of Ernst Reijsger).
