Kamasi Washington - Epic - COMPACT DISCS [CD]
Reviews coming soon
About this product
The band are all from Los Angeles, mostly South Central, and it's members - who call themselves variously InchThe Next StepInch and the InchThe West Coast Get DownInch - have been congregating since they were barely teenagers in a backyard shack in Inglewood. The story The Epic tells, without words but rather though some combination of magic, mastery, and sheer force of imagination, the story of Kamasi Washington and the Next Step and their collective mission to remove jazz from the shelf of relics and make it new, unexpected, and dangerous again.

180 gm vinyl three LP pressing. The most ambitious jazz album to arrive in ages, Los Angeles saxophonist/composer Kamasi Washington's eagerly awaited debut clocks in at 172 minutes with never a dull moment. While his terrific 10-piece band already pack a wallop thanks to their doubled basses and drums, Washington usually embellishes them with a string section and angelic choir. Like his luminous playing on Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp a Butterfly, Washington solos with power and grace here. Versions of InchCherokeeInch and Terence Blanchard's InchMalcolm's ThemeInch nod to jazz tradition, but it's originals like InchChanging of the GuardInch that signal his aspirations.
