{"product_id":"michael-white-pneuma","title":"Michael White - Pneuma","description":"\u003cp\u003eViolinist and composer Michael White was among the first to play the violin in avant-garde jazz, and became one of the first jazz violinists to play jazz rock fusion. During his career, he played with Sun Ra, McCoy Tyner, Eric Dolphy, Pharoah Sanders and others. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/store.ververecords.com\/products\/michael-white-pneuma-lp?srsltid=AfmBOoocGqIY1DnP5hhSv_a9sZdPIjcgmamTs_g35Os06sN8FSOwFwlj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eLabel\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ground-breaking jazz violinist demands much from his listeners, opening with a difficult Afro-jazz symphony. He finds a groove after that, helped by four female singers who augment the basic quartet. The leader shares the spotlight, too much considering his jazz violin is what makes this album noteworthy. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/album\/pneuma-mw0000707690\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eAllMusic\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile not a household name, you’ve likely heard Michael White’s avant-garde violin playing on spiritual jazz classics like Pharoah Sanders’ Thembi, John Coltrane’s Infinity, and Joe Henderson \u0026amp; Alice Coltrane’s The Elements. Pneuma is White’s debut on Impulse! and goes even deeper than the previously mentioned albums, leading with a five part Afro-jazz symphony featuring the great Kenneth Nash on percussion. It’s heavy listening with sweeping dissonance, but resolves fantastically with “The Blessing Song,” a beautiful spiritual jazz groover anchored by four singers praising, “Lord, come into our hearts with a blessing. Lord, come into our hearts with your love.”  — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/insheepsclothinghifi.com\/album\/michael-white-pneuma\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eIn Sheeps Clothing Hi Fi\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" data-testid=\"embed-iframe\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/2HIP1xE9p8zqP444WAJWnM?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\u003cp\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Impulse!\u003cbr\u003eSeries: University Series Of Fine Recordings\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Vinyl, LP, Album, Limited Edition, Reissue, 180 gram\u003cbr\u003eReissued: 2022 \/ Original: 1972\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Jazz\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Free Jazz, Vocals, Modal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: Jazz\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Impulse!","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45856921288862,"sku":"600753970522","price":45.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/files\/R-25345579-1706866185-2260.jpg?v=1754576589","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/products\/michael-white-pneuma","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
