World of Jazz 790

The present and the past collide in this twelve release set of new albums. The first five featured tracks are from recently recorded material demonstrating the best modern jazz can offer. The remaining seven tracks are historical recordings, never before released, from the Elemental and Resonance labels for Record Store Day 2026. All of these capture the excitement of live jazz through the sixties, seventies and eighties and feature some of the best musicians from those three decades.
