John Surman
's
Jazz in Britain '68-'69
is an overview disc of his '60s band and one of the more enjoyable vintage British jazz records. These tunes come from several different sessions recorded in the late sixties, as evidenced by the alternate drummers --
Alan Jackson
and
Tony Oxley
-- and the use of different instrumentation, like the three-horn modal piece "Bouquet Garni," from 1968 that places Surman in the company of only two other horn players --
Alan Skidmore
and
Mike Osborne
-- and no rhythm section, in the configuration that would emerge in the mid-'70s as
S.O.S.
For most of the other tracks, Oxley is the drummer,
Kenny Wheeler
plays flugelhorn, and
John Taylor
plays piano (acoustic and electric). The music here is all over the place stylistically, but it hardly matters because all the players are fully engaged, and as an ensemble, they all shine and were seemingly looking forward to the impact the new jazz would have.
