Rick Rozie, Lee Rozie, Rashied Ali - Afro Algonquin [Moers Music]

Bought directly from the label last week, can't have been a big seller...

 Quite an intriguing-looking one.

It's worth a listen. Bass sound is very 80s but drums, obviously, and woodwinds are strong. Bizarre vocal on 'Fever'

Oh yeah, I also purchased this shortly after it came out. I think I bought it during an open air jazz festival were they sold records during intermission. They had more obscure labels, like this one.

That great group ! And maybe this was the beginning of Shepps return from totally free to more straight ahead forms like "Blues for Donald Duck"

Yeah, indeed an excellent album. For what it's worth Shepp was playing straight-ahead throughout his career, left and right/up and down, and most of his LPs include at least one tune in a more standard vein.

Look at that old digital watch - it's huge. I wonder if it's one of those red LED watches where you have to push the button to turn it on or an early LCD where there was a button to turn on a light behind it?

My guess would be latter.

Yeah, I remember how digital watches kept getting bigger and BIGGER.  Eventually, lots of them had calculators with full numerical keypads built in.  Man, they were so ugly.  ... MUCH worse than the one Paquito's wearing.

 

Now spinning:

A friend of mine has a theory that the late seventies through early 90s, starting with VSOP, was the wristwatch jazz / rolex jazz era. 

I'm not sure what the characteristics of the Rolex jazz genre are, but, since he pointed it out, I have had to concede that he has a point.

Like, as in official sponsorship? Such as "here's some $$$ for taking album pics with our watch on" type thing?
