Jazz Raga

VINYL FORMAT. On 180 gram vinyl! The world famous Impulse jazz catalogue is so cavernous you truly need a music-minded flashlight to uncover its deepest and darkest secrets. Thankfully Light In The Attic has recently acquired such luminescent technology and the first discovery is Hungarian guitarist Gabor Szabo's 1967 Indo-fusion landmark, Jazz Raga. Combining Szabo's distinctive six-string touch and open-minded ideas, it brings together jazz, pop-rock, and his native European influence, along with hypnotic sitar, stoned bass vibrations, occasional psychedelic vocals, and the laidback, yet totally in the pocket, Latin/R&B infused backbeat of session drummer Bernard Purdie.
