Berger, Karl / Dave Holland / Stu Martin / John McLaughlin / John Surman - Where Fortune Smiles CD
SKU
23-ECLEC 2605
"The product of a recording session in New York City in 1970, “Where Fortune Smiles” is one of the milestone albums to be recorded at a time when the divisions between the worlds of jazz and rock were less defined and albums such as Bitches Brew by Miles Davis and the work of Tony Williams’ Lifetime pointed a new direction in music.
Originally released on Pye Records’ “Progressive” imprint Dawn Records, Where Fortune Smiles was recorded fresh on the heels of John McLaughlin and Dave Holland’s work with Miles Davis, John Surman’s work with Mike Westbrook and The Trio (with Stu Martin) – original vinyl copies of the record now command large sums from collectors.
This Esoteric Recordings edition has been newly re-mastered from the original Dawn master tapes and features
an illustrated booklet which restores the original album artwork and insert and an essay by aficionado Sid Smith."
