YAMASHTA STOMU - CD FREEDOM IS FRIGHTENING

Popis - FREEDOM IS FRIGHTENING:
Stomu Yamashta is a master percussionist who studied jazz drumming at Berklee School of Jazz. In the 1970s he recorded a string of innovative albums for Island records fusing his percussion talents with jazz, electronic and classical music. "FREEDOM IS FRIGHTENING" features a fine band, including SOFT MACHINE bass guitarist HUGH HOPPER and guitarist GARY BOYLE. It was a fine achievement which propelled Yamashta to a wider audience which would eventually lead to his acclaimed GO albums featuring collaborators STEVE WINWOOD, MICHAEL SHRIEVE, KLAUS SCHULZE. Never before released on CD, this Esoteric reissue has been remastered from the original master tapes and fully restores the original vinyl artwork and continues ESOTERICs series of YAMASHTAs work for Island Records.
