Maulawi - Maulawi

 


A superb gem from the Chicago/Detroit 70's jazz communities. This record feels like a meeting of the minds between two urban jazz hubs. Soulful, spiritual, catchy, extravagant, poignant, and relevant - a few words that capture the essence and energy of this recording. It feels special on several different levels, a culmination of artistic visions in one recording studio. I was lucky to pick up the recent vinyl reissue of this legendary album just yesterday. Originally released on the diverse Detroit DIY jazz label, Strata Records, this album has been brought to new audiences thanks to 180 Proof Records.
