We Release Jazz present a reissue from Geneva's
Boillat Thérace Quintet
, the
My Greatest Love
album, featuring bebop and hard-bop legend
Benny Bailey
and available for the first time since 1975. Galvanized by the creation of the Montreux Jazz Festival in the late '60s and lively local scenes, jazz music was healthy and booming in Switzerland in the 1970s. One band that beautifully captured this energy was
Jean-François Boillat
and
Raymond Thérace
's Boillat Thérace Quintet whose self-titled debut (WRJ 006CD/LTD-LP) and impressive Montreux appearance set the tone for quality Helvetic jazz in 1974. Following this first excellent impression, the Boillat-Thérace ensemble connected with American trumpeter
Benny Bailey
and recorded the magnificent
My Greatest Love
in May and June of 1975. The modal, hard bop, and soul-jazz gem includes first-class takes on
Freddie Hubbard
's "Gibraltar",
Kenny Dorham
's "Blue Bossa", and
Jimmy Heath
's "Gemini", plus deliciously funky originals from the Geneva crew, including the upbeat "Le Colin" and the swaying fan-favorite "Prompt" and it's thrilling solos. Bailey is on trumpet and flugelhorn, Boillat on Fender Rhodes and piano, Thérace on saxophone and flute,
Roger Vaucher
on Fender bass,
Eric Wespi
on drums, and
Rogelio Garcia
on percussion and tenor saxophone -- heavy sessions and deep vibes. This is reissued in conjunction with Boillat Thérace Quintet's self-titled debut album from 1974 (WRJ 006CD/LTD-LP). Swiss jazz bliss!
