Jasis – Spontaneous Improvisation


Here’s one of my favorite private press albums to emerge out of Seattle. Vibist Milton Simons composed this album which consists of 3 long tracks, the two songs on the A side are 13+ minutes long and the B side is just shy of 27 minutes long. The tracks range from mellow and brooding and get pretty swinging without really getting too outside. This was released on the Topaz label, I don’t see a year but my guess is early to mid seventies. Fans of Khan Jamal, Bobby Naughton, Walt Dickerson and Gunter Hampel take note.
