Keith Tippett Group-You Are Here... I Am There-'70-NEW LP COLORED
Keith Tippett Group - "You Are Here... I Am There" 1970

NEW LP REISSUE 180 GR AKARMA

debut album as the band leader of The Keith Tippett Group (he also plays piano in the group This is an album of sprawling jazz compositions. There is less of a rock feel than on "Dedicated to You...", more of an avant-garde jazz-orchestral feel. Extended vamps and improvisational skronking alternate with tight harmonies and very nicely arranged melodies. Fantastic interplay between freedom and form, and between the musicians themselves.... Tippett knew his players' styles and capabilities, and composed with them in mind. This is moody, sometimes brooding jazz, but not without a sense of humor. One of the shorter tunes contains a playful Beatles reference. Features a horn section whose members were all a part of the Soft Machine at some point or another: Elton Dean, Nick Evans, and Mark Charig; with Alan Jackson on drums and Jeff Clyne on bass.
