"To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Cadillac Music & Publishing, they present this special reissue of Cadillac's very first release, legendary British jazz pianist/composer Mike Westbrook's Live, with additional tracks, mastered by Jon Hiseman of Colosseum, and released with the blessing of Mike. Live 1972 stands out as a document of the Westbrook project in transition, and as a bloody great slab of music in its own right pleated by a brilliant collection of musicians. Featuring Mike Westbrook: electric piano, harmonica; George Khan: electric saxophone; Gary Boyle: guitar; Butch Potter: bass, pongo stick, flute; Alan Jackson: drums, alto saxophone."

"Rare 1970s British jazz from Joy: Chris Francis, James Dvorak, Frank Roberts, Ernest Mothle, Keith Bailey, featuring two extended tracks, new texts and photos. Remastered from the original tapes by Keith Bailey and Lawrence Czoka. With insert featuring new pics by acclaimed photographer Jak Kilby, it's the first ever reissue of this cult British jazz LP. The mid-70s should be seen as a vibrant and fecund period for British jazz, including Spear, Molongo, The Brotherhood of Breath, Keith Tippett and Elton Dean's groups and others such as The Quintet (Joy's direct precursor),Keith Bailey's Orbit, Chris Francis' Naima, Maggie Nichols' Voice, Dave Defries' Lemonspiel, Gary Windo's I Dogu featuring Frank Roberts, Quincicasm, Landscape, Harry Becket's Joy Unlimited, Isotope - all working with the punk ethic and generating a special scene. Joy were part of this: there was undoubtedly a buzz around this hip young multi-cultural band featuring London musicians from South Africa, The Caribbean, The US and UK. The LP that came out in 1976 only increased the buzz: one of the best bands playing in the contemporary post-bop style but with their own material."

"The Jazz Doctors or the Billy Bang Quartet toured Europe in the early 80s. Featuring spiritual jazz pioneer saxophonist Frank Lowe and Vietnam vet turned free jazz violinist Billy Bang, the group recorded in 1983 and 1984 in London. With legendary rhythm section Rafael Garrett and Dennis Charles, they recorded an album for Cadillac that fast became a sought-after classic. The '84 session, with the different but equally astonishing rhythm of Wilber Morris and Thurman Barker, never appeared. Studio problems led to half the album being rendered unusable. Here for the very first time is the music that remained, including a unique and astonishing suite composed by Billy Bang. Newly remastered from the original tapes at Gearbox studio and including a previously unreleased session, and all on CD for the first time, with new sleeve notes and images by acclaimed author/photographer Val Wilmer."
