I have five of his albums, but I think I have spun this one less than others, in part because I haven't had it as long as the others. I think the RCA album is still my favorite of the bunch.

I'm missing 'The Eastern Moods' and 'Spellbound' on LP. One day. 'The Music of' on New Jazz is my favourite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'The Music of' on New Jazz is my favourite. We have Jazz Sahara and Spellbound on CD. On LP, we have Sound of Africa, the Music Of, and East Meets West. Don't think we have Eastern Moods at all. We will spin The Music Of later in your honor! We will be pairing it with pizza, if that is not too much of a cultural mishmash! Now spinning Spellbound, paired with a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

Spellbound is much closer to straight ahead jazz, with occasional Eastern touches sprinkled in. Jazz Sahara, on the other hand, is much more middle eastern, and the main jazz element is Johnny Griffin. I'm eager to hear where The Music Of lands on the spectrum.

bertrand Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 I was able to get Eastern Moods as MP3s through my Public Library, so at least I have heard it. Would love to see it on CD, I have all the others on CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This album seems to switch from track to track between eastern and jazz, although there is some crossover. I forgot that "La Ibkey" is on this album. I first heard this on a Prestige comp titled The Jazz Soul of Cleopatra. In the 1990s, when I used to DJ, this track was often included in my Tantric Textures sets.
