Some words on this issue: SHORTER, AL: “Tes Esat” (America – AM-6118) Another all scorching free jazz wonder of a record. Al Shorter made two stellar albums as a leader and this is one of them (next to the Orgasm record on Verve), the hardest one to track down and one of the crown jewels of the America label imprint. And although both of his releases may be clouded in obscurity, there is not one of them that has not flattened me. Assisting Shorter on his sonic crusade are Gary Windo (tenor), Rene Augustus (drums, bells) and Johnny Mbizo Dyani (bass, piano, flute, bells) and together they unleash an all flattening force that brings to mind hurricane Andrew ripping through the Florida Keys. With Shorter at helm, the group spreads open their dynamic rhythmic ingenuity and almost extra-terrestrial improvising skills that reveal an almost psychotic high energy rush. In all the freedom on display here is very beautiful, abstract, powerful and certainly more than capable to transport you pretty far away from reality if you let it. Tes Estat is musically profound and profoundly musical, although it might be fogged up in a veil of hardcore free-jazzing abstract thought patterns. Killer disc all way round.
New to the e-bay game but long experience in selling records so bid with confidence.
Our grading scale: Mint/ Near Mint/ Excellent/ VG++/. We don’t sell anything below VG++. VG++ grade is basically that the record has some scuffs and has wear. Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
