Two CD live archive release from the British drumming legend. This recording dates from a concert performance in Munich in 1972 and was the first musical outing in Europe for Ginger alongside Salt. The show was billed as Ginger Baker and Salt "Africa Now" Invites Drum Battle. The show was filmed for German television and broadcast shortly after and repeated a year later in 1973. This live recording is one of several releases based on the private archives of legendary drummer Ginger Baker, which finally see the light of day. Although not intended for a formal release and suffering from "bootleg" sound quality problems, the musical importance of this material is so significant, that it overshadows any technicalities and is essentially a Godsend. This album brings a live recording of Baker's ensemble Salt, which he founded following the demise of Air Force. Salt never recorded any albums during its short life-span, and therefore this material by the band is invaluable. In Salt Baker assembled a group of British Jazz players, which played in the last Air Force lineup, augmented by African vocalists and drummers, taking an even more radical step towards World-Jazz Fusion. Some great players are present: saxophonist / flautist Steve Gregory, saxophonist Bud Beadle and others. But the great surprise of this recording is the participation of the legendary Jazz drummer Art Blakey, who "battles" with Baker in a series of drum exchanges. Definitely worth investigating, especially in view of the fact that the sound quality on this album is quite excellent, as it originates from a TV recording made of the concert.
PERSONNEL: Ginger Baker - drums; Steve Gregory - tenor sax, flute; Bud Beadle - saxes; Tunde Koboje - bass; Berkley Jones - guitar; Laolu Akins - african drums; Kehinde Lijadu - vocals; Taiwo Lijadu - vocals; Art Blakey - drums.
This is a very special one. At the Jazz Now Festival in Munich Ginger Baker played with his Salt Band. It seems this Band is a Reunion of his Airforce Band, however it sounds quite different. The special surprise this evening was the drummer Art Blakey and Ginger took the chance for some hot drum battles! Because it was such a fun for all, he did the same thing at the Jazztage Berlin 1972. Ginger Baker and Salt finds Baker and his band deep into African rhythms, riffs and vocals, with great sax and guitar solo work to flesh it out. The musicians are first rate and their performance is fiery. The sound quality is also quite good. According to the liner notes, the concert was filmed for German television, but the video tapes were lost. A pity, but thankfully we have the audio of this great concert. The music is amazing and this is a wonderful historic document of the very short time lived Band Salt.If you want to hear Baker at his best, buy this album...
