Dadisi Komolahe - Hassans Walk - Pure Pleasure LP

180-Gram Vinyl

Don't let the date fool you: released in 1983, this modal, occasionally free outfit from California channels the spiritual energy of the late '60s and early '70s — Coltrane, Pharoah Sanders, McLaughlin, Miles. A soul-jazz treasure from the early-'80s LA scene, it's led by alto saxophonist Dadisi Komolafe and features Ricky Kelly (vibes), Eric Tillman (piano), Roberto Miranda (bass), and Sunship Theus (drums), all locked into a soulful, post-Coltrane groove that stays true to its rhythmic core.
