"The second album by Boomerang, the prominent Kazakh jazz band of early 1980s that fused post-bop with elements of traditional eastern music in a very organic and thoughtful way. No covers or jazz standards on this one, all titles are composed by the band's trumpet player. The music, not especially expressive on the surfase, is intrinsically tense, and features agile trumpet work at the forefront and intelligent support by Rhodes piano and inventive rhythm section. Released in 1985 in Tashkent in the meager amount of 3,000 pieces, this record barely reached the listeners beyond the Soviet Cental Asia, and is a rarity now. Some of the Boomerang's material got reissued later on a CD by Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab in the US, but I never managed to find out anything about that effort. Available for downoading is a rip of a vinyl kindly shared by Mr. Arkadiy Medvedev, Russia." friends who like oriental touches on free jazz will enjoy more.
Line-up:
Yury Parfionov - trumpet
Victor Nikolayev - soprano and tenor saxophones
Lev Lieplauk - fender piano
Tahir Ibragimov - percussion
Farhad Ibragimov - bass, tabla
Konstantin Lee - guitar
Thanks to Serhiy :)
