Bob Freedman ~ Journeys of Odysseus 1972
Cobblestone Records CST 9009

A Jazz Suite for Chamber Orchestra

If you enjoyed Gary McFarland's "America The Beautiful" this album was originally based around similar lines. Personaly I find it more like Oliver Nelson's Kennedy Dream album however I'm a sucker for spoken word used as a concept within jazz music.
More classic jazz on the Cobblestone Record Label



"At the begining of each section you will hear a brief spoken quotation from Homer setting the tone for each episode. What each individual will experience or hear into the music depends totally on his own imagination and his sensitivity" Bob Freedman

Hugh Masekela - Introducing Hedzoleh Soundz

Blue Thumb #BTS62 July 1973


01 Languta
02 Kaa Ye Oya
03 Adade
04 Yei Baa Gbe Wolo
05 Patience
06 When
07 Nye Tamo Ame
08 Rekpete

Stanley Kwesi Todd (bass guitar, vocals);
Nat "Leepuma" Hammond (flute, Ewe congas, vocals);
Richard Neesai "Jagger" Botchway (guitar);
Acheampong Welbeck (Afro-trap kit: American bass drum/Hihat, with 4
mounted gankogui bells, and a mounted gourd hit with sticks!);
James Kwaku Morton (Ewe congas, vocals);
Issac “Okyerema” Asante (Akan atumpan, percussion, vocals)
Samuel Nortey (percussion, vocals
Hugh Masekela (highly echoey trumpet, vocals)

Some reading matter

"The 1973 album “Introducing Hedzoleh Soundz,” by Ghana’s Hedzoleh Soundz with South African trumpetist, Hugh Masekela is simply stunning- arguably the greatest African-Jazz fusion album of all time, and certainly Masekela’s most outstanding release. The musicianship & creativity on these precious cuts are matchless. All but 2 of 8 tunes are written by Hedzoleh (one is by Masekela in HS style, one is traditional)- and therein lies the album’s brilliance. So don’t be fooled by the title, this is Hedzoleh’s album with guest Masekela. Hedzoleh (“freedom”) Soundz was formed in Accra, Ghana in the late 1960’s. Leader Stanley Todd assembled a monster ensemble of musicians from the Ghana Arts Council, intending to form a new Afro-Rock group that would be more traditional & African in sound, and hopefully surpass Osibisa in popularity (alas it was not to be). Their original songs were based upon
traditional Akan & Ewe music, and employed dark, organic sounding African-made drums instead of modern western congas/drum-kit. One of their greatest hits was a Liberian sea shanty/Palm Wine song (Rekpete).
Hedzoleh’s rise to power was bolstered by local music mogul, Faisal Helwani, a producer, promoter, & club-owner, who brought Fela to Ghana. Helwani recognized Hedzoleh’s importance & potential, making them the house band for his famous “Napoleon” club. He also produced the LP “Introducing Hedzoleh Soundz,” recording in Lagos. Hedzoleh won the Art Council “Dance Band” award in 1974.

Interestingly, Hugh Masekela was introduced to Hedzoleh by none other than Fela Kuti. Masekela worked with a primordial version of Hedzoleh as early as 1967 as evidenced by his powerful (but more jazz-heavy) performance at the Monterey Pop festival with Hedzoleh members: Botchway (guitar), Todd (bass), Hammond (modern congas/flute), Morton (congas), Asante (on modern drum-kit!), and “Big Black” on congas"

Luis Gasca (trumpet), Hadley Caliman (tenor sax) (fl)
Todd Cochram (piano), James Leary (bass)
Woody Theus (drum), Victor Pantoja (cga)

Caliman recorded four albums as a composer and bandleader:
Hadley Caliman (1971), Iapetus (1972), Projecting (1975) and Celebration (1977). Prior to these recordings, much of Caliman's studio work consisted of side projects with other musicians. The first two albums are on vinyl only. The other albums were re-released on compact disc in 2003 by Catalyst Records

Hadley Caliman Mainstream 318 1971

Caliman injected his spatial sax and flute into sessions for Julian Priester's Love, Love, Bayete's Worlds Around The Sun and Shades of Joy's Music of El Topo (much played by Gilles Peterson) as well as playing sets with the likes of Azar Lawrence and Luis Gasca. This is his first recording on Mainstream , pretty much straight modal bop ... more Caliman coming if wanted
