JazzKLUB / Mama Terra presented by Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival / Spiritual Jazz from Scotland - NOSPR

From the very first saxophone solo by Konrad Wiszniewski, the audience become aware of the calibre of music they are about to hear. Following a tribute to Herbie Hancock’s funk period, the latest album by the Scottish ensemble Mama Terra emerges as an ambitious fusion of jazz, soul, and R&B, best encapsulated by the increasingly popular term spiritual jazz. Here, Erykah Badu meets electric Miles Davis, while massive Tyner-esque chords and soaring Coltrane-inspired saxophone solos coexist with elegant tropicália inflections and the rich textures of Robert Glasper-style jazz R&B.
