This superb maxi features some of today's premier Jazz
players producing quality contempory Jazz music, influenced
by the past but definitely pushing the music into the
future. Wonderful!

"Sometimes you can get obsessed with hunting for
old (and sometimes) rare records so it's great to be
reminded that there is great jazz being recorded and
released right now, not to mention being performed live
at clubs around the world. It can also be just as hard
to find the great music amongst all the 'ok' stuff out
there so it's very important for a compilation like
this to introduce people to so many exciting contemporary
jazz musicians/groups.

There come times when one listens
to Dick Schory’s “Jungle Root” or Willis
Jackson’s “Nuttherin’ for Stuttherin’”
and weeps for this music’s absence in contemporary
jazz. Perfect Toy comes with this essential compilation
at that perfect time, and makes amends for the rhythmic
wrongs of the past years.
Egon Alapatt (Stones Throw/Now Again)

It is an optimal compilation, 5/5

Contemporary Jazz compilation is a delicious one with
unexplored & fresh jazz sounds that can transfer
you to a deep & spiritual state of mind.
.
Let me take you there with my own words. Let’s
begin this worldwide fascinating jazz untold story from
the States included projects. US represented here with
Cultures of Rhythm and their ‘’Bodhisvattva
Wonderful Sound’’, an incredible introduction
to this journey of intelligent human beings sences,
with the horns, hammonds and Blue Note drops of NYC
Sugarman 3’s on ‘’Sugar’s Boogaloo’’,
with Eli Sundelson and “Rockridge Kids“ that
can travel you with his high speed jazz train to the
right direction at time and finally with the lost funky
latinized jazz party stormer of Nick Rossi Set ‘’Sweet
Tater Pie’’.
..
From Germany we can meet the not long time excisted
side project of Poets of Rhythm, Das Goldene Zeitalter
with Bajka on vocals on her first voice steps, modern
old jazzers from Perfect Toy Hipnosis and their ’’Hier
kommt die Laterne’’ jammin’, the deep
spiritual nightale jazz of Deep Jazz’s ‘’Starlings
Talk’’, is one of my fave highlight here,
with an exclusive version of that track that already
included in his debut album in Perfect Toy Records recently
and the unknown and limited recordable spectrum to jazz
discography of Wayne Bartlett, here with his cover of
‘’Sènor Blues’’ can judge
not only by the cover this excellent masterpiece compilation
of Tramp. Also Tramp’s super funky jazzers The
Hi-Fly Orchestra with their b side – and only in
vinyl released before -’Getting’ Down’.
Finally from one of my faves world jazz metropolis in
the world, Tokyo, we can enjoying an cover full of fresh
juice of ‘’how to re:touch a thrilled jazz
classic’’ fruit. Ladies & gentlemen Primo
– Dj and Primo Records owner, Hironobu Jyounai
- and the Groupe with their new born ‘’A Child
Runs Free’’ can suprice you on track number
6.
.
Want more… You don’t need more… Ten moments
that shines like gold are enough.
