Album Album – Jack DeJohnette’s Special Edition – LP – Pre Owned Vinyl (Arrives in 14days)

Jack DeJohnette’s Special Edition crafts a singular statement with ‘Album Album,’ a record that captures the restless spirit of 1980s jazz innovation. As one of the era’s most adventurous drummers, DeJohnette assembles a stellar ensemble—featuring the likes of John Purcell, Howard Johnson, and Baikida Carroll—to create a sonic tapestry that’s both cerebral and deeply grooving. The album teems with daring arrangements, unexpected textures, and an interplay that feels as vital today as it did upon its release. Standout tracks like ‘Ahmad the Terrible’ and ‘New Orleans Strut’ showcase DeJohnette’s knack for bridging tradition and the avant-garde, weaving in elements of blues, funk, and world music without ever losing the cohesive jazz pulse at its heart. For collectors and listeners drawn to music that rewards repeated listening, ‘Album Album’ is a window into a period when jazz was unafraid to reinvent itself, driven by musicians with vision and audacity. This is a must-spin for those who appreciate jazz’s capacity for surprise and reinvention—a dynamic, thoughtful journey through the possibilities of rhythm and melody.
