This is a collection of some my favourite Jazz/Fusion tunes from the 70's.  I came across many of these in the 90's while i was looking for breaks and source material to make beats, others in more recent years. Enjoy. 

Music by Marcos Resende & Index, Lonnie Liston Smith, Herbie Hancock, Cesar Mariano & Cia, Stan Getz, Chico Hamilton, Crusaders, Cannonball Adderly, George Duke, Mikio Masuda, Grover Washington Jr.

Gather together beneath the sun as we journey through the rhythmic sands of time with a handpicked and commingled mix by Paul Hillery. Exclusive for BBE Music, it celebrates the release of their new compilation 'Once Again We Are The Children Of The Sun'.  The mix is a deep dive into the 'We Are The Children Of The Sun' series and more. With a few specially selected tracks thrown in, it is a 2-hour trip through time and space. So dip your toes into crystal blue waters while the sound of trippy troubadours drift on a Balearic breeze. Tune in as we sail to joyful places and wide-open spaces while dropping out to a folk-funk pulse that connects us in shamanic shuffle. A reminder that we have more to connect than drive us apart. We are all made of stardust, for . . . 'Once Again We Are The Children Of The Sun'  Paul Hillery, a heathen, conceivably, but not, we hope, an unenlightened one, is the man behind the acclaimed BBE series 'We Are The Children Of The Sun' and curator at 'Folk Funk & Trippy Troubadours' with a knack for unearthing rare and previously lost gems.

CURTIS RADIO-RAINER TRÜBY. SHOW #39

“Journey To The Centre Of The Eye” is an hour long mix I did with JJ Whitefield in anticipation of his upcoming “Ethio Meditations” Remixes project I’m very happy to be a part of!
The title and cover design are heavily inspired by two of my favorite psychedelic albums:
Nektars debut album of the same name and “Psychedelic Psoul” by The Freak Scene! The mix features a vast variety of psychedelic grooves and styles from around the world! Dig!

It was January of 1972 when Nurt, a four-member progressive rock band from Poland, took part in a festival of avant-garde music. The group won a recording session at a professional Studio M-1 at Polish Radio headquarters in Warsaw. Along with the grand prize, their composition “The Son Of Fear” received an extra award for the best arrangements.

Getting a pass to a studio was quite an achievement for an unknown band that would mainly gig at college dorms and jazz festivals. The local scene in Poland had a lot of talent at that time and Nurt was undoubtedly one of the main acts offering brand new concepts people were completely unfamiliar with. Stepping into a radio studio was one of the limited ways of having an album recorded in Communist Poland, and could possible lead to signing a deal with a record label. Communism restricted the evolution of rock music in Eastern Europe and the media neglected the phenomenon that was seen as promoting the “American way”. Artists had to pay attention to lyrics being censored.

With valuable access to high quality recording equipment for only three days, the long-haired, leather jacket donning members of Nurt brought their own hard earned instruments and spontaneously used other available studio gear (including a gong) and spent every moment from noon to night composing their very first six tracks for the use of “Studio Rytm”, the one and only show at Polish Radio to showcase this sort of music.

The result is this self-titled album containing the group’s very first recordings that have never been commercially released in 40 years, until now. This vinyl-only release (limited to 500 copies) holds a unique blend of radiant fuzz guitar, jazz-rock, and psychedelia recovered from the era of the East European Curtain and re-mastered by Sound by Sound Records from its original master tapes.

All recordings are enhanced with the heavy ambient sound of Studio M-1, the place where only top Polish orchestras performed live or recorded for the purpose of national radio broadcasting and state owned phonographic industry.

This newly discovered classic from beyond the Iron Curtain is an essential 72’ recording and captures rock at its purest, most progressive form.

Sound by Sound Records was born out of a passion for music from the East European Iron Curtain era.

Its mission is to release high-quality vinyl from unsung artists who had the courage to make music despite the harsh restrictions of repressive Communist times.
