RELEASE DATE

2023 repress. 2022 release. It is widely accepted that the recorded musical output of Indian-born British guitarist
Amancio D'Silva
came to a premature closure with the landmark 1972 albums,
Cosmic Eye
and the unreleased masterpiece
Konkan Dance
. The Roundtable are here to prove otherwise, announcing the discovery of an extraordinary lost recording. Forty years after it was recorded, the label present
Sapana
, the forgotten piece of a remarkable musical legacy, the final recording from one the most singular artists to emerge from the British Jazz scene of the 1960s/'70s. Recorded in 1983 and released here for the first time,
Sapana
is thematically akin to
Cosmic Eye
, a further musical exploration into the subconscious (
Dream Sequences
) imagined with traditional Hindustani and western improvisation. A spellbinding fusion of Indian raga and new-age jazz. Celebrated as a pioneer of the "Indo-jazz" movement of the 1960s, D'Silva's adventurous synthesis of modal jazz and Indian classical music defined the seminal 1969 Lansdowne jazz recordings
Hum Dono
and
Integration
. Here you find D'Silva fifteen years later, removed from the jazz scene, and musically in place of deep introspection and meditative tranquility. The recording features sitarist
Clem Alford
, a collaborator from the
Konkan Dance
sessions, plus renowned tabla player,
Jahlib Millar
, and saxophonist/flautist
Lyn Dobson
, a musician who had previously worked with
Soft Machine
,
Third Ear Band
, and
Henry Lowther
. Together the quartet produce deeply evocative music which transcends the realms of both jazz and Indian music. Includes liner notes by renowned jazz writer
Francis Gooding
. Custom flip-back sleeve; 180 gram vinyl.
