Pete Jolly Trio - Timeless - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

SERATONES - Love & Algorhythms is an interstellar synthesis of astral Soul, R&B, and sci-fi Funk. Working with producer Paul Butler (The Bees, Micheal Kiwanuka, Caroline Rose, Hurray for the Riff Raff), Seratones have taken the invitation to knock at the door of the cosmos. A.J. Haynes's voice dances with soul-stirring devotion at the altar of Black Feminisms weaving the words Toni Cade Bambara, Octavia Butler's Xenogenesis multiverse, echoes of bell hooks, and Audre Lorde's Power of the Erotic. With drummer Jesse Gabriel's machine-like precision and the transcendental touches from guitarist Travis Stewart, the album oscillates between Alice Coltrane-inspired bliss & Giorgio Moroder's ecstatic . Each song hovers and pulsates in the wide, dark matter'constellations guiding a journey through the subtle body, the vast fullness of the human experience and the irresistible potential of liberation.

Pete Jolly and Ralph Pena toured New Zealand in September of 1960. They were the first jazz artists to perform at many of the venues there, and were a great success. Their last performance at the Colony Club in Auckland on Sept. 18, 1960 was recorded and released on a non-commercial LP. This CD presents the full recorded concert, the LP tracks, plus two selections that never made it on to the record. This was a very fine performance before a very appreciative audience.
