Other superb re-workings include the delicately soulful “Butterfly”, jazzy groover “Sunlight”, the smooth and sexy “Tell Me A Bedtime Story” and the beautiful ballads “Maiden Voyage” and “Harvest Time”. A wonderful example of perfectly understated and masterful jazz-funk soul fusion that shouldn’t be missed, the set closes with a jaw-dropping version of Stevie Wonder’s “As”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lovingly curated reissue enables a long overdue reappraisal of this hitherto unavailable masterpiece.

Recorded in Tokyo in 1979, it is comprised in the main of vocal versions of six Hancock originals and was singer Kimoko Kasai's fourth CBS-enabled collaboration with a leading US jazz musician—following Satin Doll with Gil Evans in 1972, In Person with Oliver Nelson in 1974 and Kimoko Is Here with Cedar Walton in 1975. The line-up includes Hancock on keyboards and synthesisers (and the era's signature vocoder), and the Headhunters's Bennie Maupin on saxophones, Paul Jackson on bass and Bill Summers on percussion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eButterfly\u003c\/em\u003e was originally released in Japan only. In the less well-connected world of the late 1970s and early 1980s, this meant the album slipped unnoticed past most listeners in Europe and the US. But it is on radar now. And better late than never, for the performances are as classy as the set list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not revolutionary jazz-funk, as Hancock's own Head Hunters (CBS, 1973) was and Future Shock (CBS, 1983) would be. It is music with which to soothe a furrowed brow or two. There are elegant contributions from Hancock, Maupin on soprano and tenor saxophones and Webster Lewis on organ and acoustic piano. The trio float over sumptuous grooves laid down by Jackson, Summers, guitarist Ray Obiedo and drummer Alphonse Mouzon. Along with the Hancock originals, some with lyrics written by Hancock's sister Jean, the album includes Stevie Wonder's \"As\" and Graselli \u0026amp; Malanet's \"Head In The Clouds.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is not one dud on the album.

Original copies are now very tricky to score and, like all the Nucleus records, it’s aged ridiculously well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe very title Elastic Rock could be regarded as the group's MO, describing a melting point between their rock and jazz impulses. Indeed, housed in a memorable gatefold jacket designed by Roger Dean, the die cut molten teardrop shape on the front sleeve opens to reveal a fiery volcanic crater. On the back, Dean's drawing has Carr with saxophonist Brian Smith, guitarist Chris Spedding, drummer John Marshall, bassist Jeff Clyne and sax, oboe and pianist Karl Jenkins in a circle, the central core of a movement and the basis for its activity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRecorded over four days in January 1970, Elastic Rock didn't sound like any other British jazz album. Exploding out the gate, \"1916\" opens with Marshall's frantic pounding before melancholic horns enter. The smooth title track, \"Elastic Rock\" is just a gorgeous electric blues track. Light drums, gentle melodic horns, piano and a solid bassline serve as the perfect bed for Spedding's graceful bluesy guitar melodies. The serene \"Striation\", a Clyne and Spedding collaboration, is led by bowed bass and is the epitome of calm before the late night laid back vibe of \"Taranaki\" breezes along sweetly and smoothly with great trumpet and tenor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Be With re-issue, re-mastered from the original analogue tapes, shows off just why this deserves to be back in press. - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.bewithrecords.com\/products\/nucleus-elastic-rock-lp#product\"\u003eBe With Records\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/595Y69vDazXtZ938LMXPKb?utm_source=generator\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table_1fWaB\" border=\"1\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eLabel:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eBe With Records – BEWITH125LP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"format_item_3SAJn\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eVinyl, LP, Album, Reissue\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eCountry:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eUK\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eReleased:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003ctime datetime=\"2023\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e2023\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/time\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eGenre:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eJazz, Rock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eStyle:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eFusion, Prog Rock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Be With Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42649761841310,"sku":"4251804137911","price":45.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/products\/R-27190185-1685049413-4519.jpg?v=1688464186"},{"product_id":"ian-carr-with-nucleus-solar-plexus","title":"Ian Carr With Nucleus – Solar Plexus","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat a record! The outstanding Solar Plexus, the much-loved third album from Ian Carr and Nucleus, was first released on Vertigo in 1971. Inevitably, original copies are now very tricky to score and, like all the Nucleus records, it’s aged ridiculously well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnder bandleader Carr, Nucleus existed as a fluid line-up of inventive, skilled musicians. This constant evolution and revolution was all part of the continuous musical exploration and discovery that took jazz to new levels. And the music has kept relevant. To steal a line from a review of our re-issue of Roots, when it comes to anything Nucleus “it’s basically already hip-hop”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe'll let Ian describe this one: \"I wrote Solar Plexus' last year with the help of an Arts Council grant. It is based on two short themes which are stated at the beginning (Elements I \u0026amp; I1). The first theme is angular and has a slow, crab-like movement: the second theme is direct, simple and diatonic. CHANGING TIME and SPIRIT LEVEL explore the first theme and BEDROCK DEADLOCK and TORSO explore the second one. SNAKEHIPS DREAM tries to fuse both themes. (The title is a reference to the famous dancer 'Snakehips' Johnson).\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSolar Plexus features the same lineup as Elastic Rock and We'll Talk About It Later, but they're augmented by six guests, three of which play brass. Carr himself had almost full control of the writing and it does feel very different to the previous albums. It's more of a jazz record loosely based on a rock foundation rather than jazz fusion jamming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Be With re-issue, re-mastered from the original analogue tapes, shows off just why this deserves to be back in press. - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.bewithrecords.com\/products\/ian-carr-with-nucleus-solar-plexus-lp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBe With Records\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/6Cp9X2sBJuexsaXTbdln05?utm_source=generator\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table_1fWaB\" border=\"1\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 58.3618%; height: 129.318px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 17.3864px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width: 25.6112%; height: 17.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eLabel:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 74.3651%; height: 17.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eBe With Records\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e– BEWITH127LP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22.3864px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width: 25.6112%; height: 22.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 74.3651%; height: 22.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"format_item_3SAJn\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eVinyl,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLP, Album, Reissue\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22.3864px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width: 25.6112%; height: 22.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eCountry:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 74.3651%; height: 22.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eUK\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22.3864px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width: 25.6112%; height: 22.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eReleased:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 74.3651%; height: 22.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003ctime datetime=\"2023\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e2023\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/time\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22.3864px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width: 25.6112%; height: 22.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eGenre:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 74.3651%; height: 22.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eJazz,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22.3864px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width: 25.6112%; height: 22.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eStyle:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 74.3651%; height: 22.3864px; border-width: 1px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eFusion,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eJazz-Rock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Be With Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42649761874078,"sku":"4251804137935","price":48.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/products\/R-27190431-1685048987-1707.jpg?v=1688464208"},{"product_id":"nucleus-3-snakehips-etcetera","title":"Nucleus – Snakehips Etcetera","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe distinctive rolling grooves, growling basslines and blasting horns of Snakehips Etcetera combined to present Nucleus's most energetic record.

A vital and profoundly adventurous Jazz-Rock record that still swings very hard, it was first released on Vertigo in 1971. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginal copies are now very tricky to score and, as most of you really should know, it’s aged ridiculously well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA legendary work, this Be With re-issue has been newly remastered from the original Vertigo master tapes, demonstrating just why this deserves to be back in press. The stunning gatefold jacket fully restores Roger and Martyn Dean's original, arresting album artwork to complete this must-have reissue. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlive and bursting with a joyful energy that has to be heard to be believed, \u003cem\u003eDedicated to You, But You Weren't Listening\u003c\/em\u003e flirts with perfection. It's truly magical and forever essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA brilliant jazz pianist, composer, arranger and bandleader \"who could make the outlands of modern music feel like the most hospitable of places\" (The Guardian), Keith Tippett's second album is oft-regarded as his Canterbury album. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndeed, not only does he draw heavily on Soft Machine members past, present and future but the album title itself archly references a Soft Machine composition. Ray Babbington handles bass alongside Neville Whitehead and the drums are shared between Brian Spring (Nucleus), Robert Wyatt(!) and Phil Howard (who would go on to replace Wyatt in Soft Machine). Gary Boyle (Isotope) is on guitar whilst the great percussionist Tony Uter is enlisted for his conga and cow bell expertise. Elton Dean on Alto Saxello, cornetist Marc Charig and Nick Evans on trombone round out this quite stunning ensemble. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDedicated to You, But You Weren't Listening\u003c\/em\u003e presents a collective of superhuman musicians really, *really* enjoying themselves in the studio. The sheer exuberance of the performance is totally infectious. It's wild, energetic, atmospheric and, bluntly, bordering on chaotic at points. In a word, it's beautiful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRobert Wyatt's drumming opens the record with a bang on the majestic Be With favourite \"This Is What Happens\". Some have described his work here as \"easily the most inspired of his career on record.\" It's an ultra-funky conga-driven groove that truly sparks via the duelling interplay between the three horn players. In the background, Keith's insistent piano, in conversation with those unignorable drums, is the anchor that keeps this piece rollicking away. Breathtaking. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe epic, energetic \"Thoughts to Geoff\" is a 10-minute jammer that tends towards the dissonant and improvisational but becomes more fluid, laconic and melodic as it unravels. The interplay between soloists and ensembles is particularly dazzling here - blazing solos by Evans, Charig and Tippett himself in a flourish of angular arpeggios interspersed with chordal elocution. Phew. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUp next, the no less-urgent Mingus-referencing \"Green and Orange Night Park\" is a soaring example of ambitious jazz mixed with rock aggression, with Dean strutting his stuff by launching into a scorching solo. An absolutely jaw-dropping piece. Arguably the highlight of this album of huge highlights! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough much of the album tends to fall on the raucous side (\"Gridal Suite\" approaches free-jazz at its most chaotic and, dare we say it, \"difficult\"), there are a few more sedate, at times spacey numbers, such as the deeply impressionistic \"Five After Dawn\". The rhythmically complex \"Black Horse\" is the most accessible track here, a sort of swinging Big Band number with tight grooves, soaring horn \u0026amp; reed melodies, a sizzling Boyle guitar solo and tasty electric piano riffs from Tippett. An hypnotic climax to a staggering record. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Be With edition of \u003cem\u003eDedicated to You, But You Weren't Listening\u003c\/em\u003e has been re-mastered from the original Vertigo master tapes, Simon Francis’ mastering working together with Cicely Balston's cut at Abbey Road Studios to weave their usual magic with these wonderful recordings. The stunning gatefold sleeve has been restored in all its brainchild glory so you know you're dealing with the definitive reissue, here. Now, are you listening? — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.bewithrecords.com\/products\/the-keith-tippett-group-dedicated-to-you-but-you-werent-listening-lp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eLabel\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePianist, composer, arranger, and bandleader Keith Tippett's first album, \u003cem\u003eYou Are Here...I Am There\u003c\/em\u003e, was issued in 1969, and received some notice as the work of an ambitious composer looking for a voice. Apparently, by the time he recorded \u003cem\u003eDedicated to You, But You Weren't Listening\u003c\/em\u003e, which was released in 1971, he'd found it in spades. Tippett has become one of the great lights of the British free jazz movement, and for more than 30 years he has led groups of improvising musicians, from two to 40 in number, on some of the most exploratory and revelatory harmonic adventures in musical history - whether those in America know it or not. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe band here is comprised of 11 pieces, including Elton Dean, Robert Wyatt, Nick Evans, Roy Babbington, Gary Boyle, Neville Whitehead, and others. The commitment to jazz here is total, as Tippett grafts the dynamic sensibilities of George Russell, the textural and chromatic palettes of Gil Evans, and the sheer force of Oliver Nelson onto his own palette. The interplay between soloists and ensembles is dazzling - check \"Thoughts for Geoff,\" with blazing solos by Nick Evans, cornetist Marc Charig, and Tippett himself in a series of angular arpeggios interspersed with chordal elocution. Wyatt's drumming, which opens the record with a bang on \"This Is What Happens,\" is easily the most inspired of his career on record. The nod to Mingus on \"Green and Orange Night Park\" is more than formal; it's an engagement with some of the same melodic constructs Mingus was working out in New Tijuana Moods. In sum, this is an adventurous kind of jazz that still swings very hard despite its dissonance and regards a written chart as something more than a constraint to creative expression. Brilliant. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/album\/dedicated-to-you-but-you-werent-listening-mw0000085615\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eAllMusic\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/r3chd9ZTUWI?si=UpyA2pBc0JOSb2Fx\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7E8QvIrj8FI?si=MirtbN6GhKGcKUJj\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVinyl tracklist:\u003cbr\u003eA1 This Is What Happens \/\/ Composed By – Nick Evans\u003cbr\u003eA2 Thoughts To Geoff \/\/  Composed By – Keith Tippett\u003cbr\u003eA3 Green And Orange Night Park \/\/ Composed By – Keith Tippett\u003cbr\u003eB1 Gridal Suite \/\/ Composed By – Elton Dean\u003cbr\u003eB2 Five After Dawn \/\/ Composed By – Keith Tippett\u003cbr\u003eB3 Dedicated To You, But You Weren't Listening \/\/ Composed By – Elton Dean, Hugh Hopper, Mark Charig\u003cbr\u003eB4 Black Horse \/\/ Composed By – Nick Evans\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Be With Records\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, Repress, Stereo, Gatefold\u003cbr\u003eReissued: 2025 \/ Original: 1971\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Jazz\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Free Jazz, Jazz-Rock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: Jazz \/\/ Jazz Groups\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Be With Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46634125787294,"sku":"4251804186155","price":65.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/files\/a_1d31af02-4673-475d-9e08-586abaa5000f.jpg?v=1774338550"},{"product_id":"gap-mangione-diana-in-the-autumn-wind","title":"Gap Mangione – Diana In The Autumn Wind","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003e— The Analog Vault \/\/ Essential Listening —\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003eOriginally released in 1968, \u003ci\u003eDiana in the Autumn Wind\u003c\/i\u003e captured flugelhorn player Gap Mangione during an exploratory period that blended jazz improvisation with orchestral arrangement.

J Dilla and Madlib fans can happily play sample bingo with this 1968 album, but A Tribe Called Quest, Ghostface Killah, Kendrick Lamar, Talib Kweli and many others have drawn from it too.

With Gap Mangione on electric piano and organ, the rhythm section of Tony Levin on bass and Steve Gadd on drums forms a very young – all in their early to mid-twenties – fiery and virtuosic trio of capable jazz musicians. On top of that, Gap’s brother Chuck conjured brass and string arrangements influenced by classical music and big-band jazz as much as by Brazilian pop and rock. That the Mangione brothers were no purists, and were quite engaged with contemporary pop music, is shown by the piano-heavy cover of \"Yesterday\", which a then presumably hip British group called The Beatles had released only three years earlier. Whether crisp jazz standards, the closing \"Graduate Medley\" of \"Scarborough Fair\", \"The Sounds of Silence\" and \"Mrs. Robinson\", or the apparently still unsampled \"Pond With Swans\", they make one thing crystal clear: \u003cem\u003eDiana In The Autumn Wind\u003c\/em\u003e can also be enjoyed wonderfully from start to finish. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.hhv-mag.com\/review\/gap-mangione-diana-in-the-autumn-wind\/?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eHHV Mag\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- First time reissued on vinyl\u003cbr\u003e- Produced with full participation of Gap Mangione\u003cbr\u003e- Housed in tip-on sleeve with a 2 page insert\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tj04d1h0NUE?si=rslCEtepnCh3f1Xu\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pDkKDDPW4hI?si=GC2ETWZNx0-axreI\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVinyl Tracklist\u003cbr\u003eA1 Boy With Toys    \u003cbr\u003eA2 Diana In The Autumn Wind    \u003cbr\u003eA3 Long Hair Soulful    \u003cbr\u003eA4 Yesterday    \u003cbr\u003eA5 The XIth Commandment    \u003cbr\u003eA6 St. Thomas    \u003cbr\u003eB1 You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You    \u003cbr\u003eB2 Pond With Swans    \u003cbr\u003eB3 You Are My Sunshine    \u003cbr\u003eB4 Free Again    \u003cbr\u003eB5 Dream On Little Dreamer    \u003cbr\u003eB6 Graduate Medley\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Be With Records\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Vinyl, LP, Album, Deluxe Edition, Limited Edition, Reissue, Remastered\u003cbr\u003eReissued: 2026 \/ Originally Released: 1968\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Jazz, Funk \/ Soul\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Big Band, Jazz-Funk, Soul-Jazz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: TAV Essential Listening\u003cbr\u003eFile under: Jazz \/\/ Soul-Jazz \/ Jazz-Funk\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Be With Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46844590850206,"sku":"4251804187619","price":60.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/files\/5-gap-mangione-diana-in-the-autumn-wind.jpg?v=1778925127"}],"url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/collections\/label-be-with-records.oembed","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
