Saffron Robe I have “The Mage” by Greg but only came across this album by chance. I’m not sure if it's related to the Michael Moorcock novel of a similar title but I’m reading the book at the moment and it makes the perfect aural accompaniment. Love how the first book in the trilogy is dedicated to Hawkwind (including Lemmy!), although jazz with its idiosyncratic time signatures is perhaps a better medium to convey the atmosphere of the book. Favorite track: Riff for Raff.

StrangeFlow Another great album by Greg Foat! Some tracks are quiet and relaxed, some powerful and I really dig the end of the album. (with Rocken End and a lot of waves calming your jazz-infused brain) Favorite track: Riff for Raff.

Andrew Jervis Beautifully produced soundtrack style jazz that's just a lil' psychedelic. Favorite track: Hygiea.

about

This major new release from the Greg Foat Group sees celebrated jazz quintet making the most of the acoustics of an ancient church, accompanied by a full ensemble of supporting musicians. The fourth album from the celebrated jazz combo will further delight Foat fans who have been consistently enthralled by the taste and finesse with which they execute their beguiling arrangements and instrumentation.

Last year, during the long, hot summer of 2014, a couple of tons of vintage studio gear were bundled into an ancient church on the charming and picturesque village of Ventnor on the Isle of Wight. There the centuries-old church organ was the centerpiece and the Group was accompanied a string quartet and woodwinds to create a musical style like no other. The resulting hauntingly sublime sounds need not only fill vaulted chapel ceilings, but our hearts and ears as well.

Recorded across three of the hottest days in summer, direct onto 1 tape and with all the rich, live analogue sound and the hallowed magnificence that church acoustics can bring, The Dancers at the End of Time features the classic Foat group with guesting local musicians and friends, and celebrates the summertime and beach ambience of living on the island.

- Recorded on vintage analogue equipment in an ancient church on the Isle of Wight

- Only 1000 vinyl LPs available with printed inner

- CD set with 4 page colour booklet + bonus track

- Only on Jazzman - all because WE DIG DEEPER!
