Tales of the Algonquin

Description

Released in 1971 on the DERAM label, 'Tales of the Algonquin' is John Surman's seventh album. Alongside Canadian saxophonist John Warren, it showcases the full power of his playing and the ambition of his compositions. A true tour de force in a rapidly changing jazz landscape, 'Tales of the Algonquin' remains a classic for free jazz fans today. A young prodigy on the baritone sax, Englishman John Surman gained recognition in the mid-1960s. The virtuoso was quickly approached by jazz giants such as John McLaughlin, Dave Holland, and John Taylor. The artist delved into the intricacies of experimental jazz and developed a style that would allow him to transcend the Jazz Rock scene of the early 70s.
