Gilles Peterson got his hands on this serioues jazz catalogue ever from Italy and put together this compilation with Paulo Scotti from Déjà Vu records !

Browsing the tracking list of this release you automatically notice the balance between foreign and Italian artists, something which Gilles has taken great care in getting just right. Lester Bowie, Santucci Scoppa, Kenny Clarke, Enrico Pieranunzi, Roy Haynes, Giancarlo Barigozzi, Sun Ra, Piero Umiliani, Stafford James, Valdambrini & Piana, Steve Grossman, Renato Sellani, Garrett List, Martin Joseph and Irio de Paula is the phenomenal line up here offering tracks that sit at home amongst the more purist Jazz abodes as well as camping out in those abstract territories that Sun Ra fans will know and love.
