Moonscape
Trunk
JAZZ
Originally privately pressed in 1964 in an edition of just 99 copies, ‘Moonscape’ is possibly the rarest, most desirable and certainly most valuable modern British jazz record ever made. One of the super-scarce ten inch originals could cost you £1500 - £2000 in mint condition. This is the first time ‘Moonscape’ has had a proper release.
Recorded in London in 1964, ‘Moonscape’ is pianist MICHAEL GARRICK’s first album. As interest in modern British jazz and Michael Garrick has increased over the last decade, this recording has gained almost mythical status.
Musically the album is quite superb, with a slightly floaty, drifting sound to the music that recalls a slightly more “out” BILL EVANS. The album represents an early British foray into “The New Thing” - the free jazz sound. This is British modern jazz at its very best.
