CD SOHO SCENE 1964-65

Popis - SOHO SCENE 1964-65:
As the UK fired up to the 'White Heat' predicted by its new Prime Minister Harold Wilson, the nation's jazz scene was already aglow with talent, both established and up and coming. Indeed, London was a boiling crucible of jazz invention, mixing R&B, hard bop and a pinch of the avant-garde to forge its very own alchemic brand of jazz. 'Soho Scene '64-'65' captures this moment perfectly, a time when The Beatles and Bond were both new and fresh and when Brit-jazz sounded as colourful and swinging as anything sashaying down Carnaby Street. Includes tracks by Joe Harriott, Tubby Hayes, Ronnie Scott, Harold McNair, Johnny Burch, Bill Doggett and more.
