Description

Thankfully, Isophonic Boogie Woogie is as weird and as wacky as all the above business would lead you to believe. Originally released in 1980, Isophonic Boogie Woogie was the first realization of Young’s unique version of free jazz music, which he referred to as “Afro spiritual minimal electronic space music” which on closer listening is WAY more spot on… Some of the coolest, weirdest, most far out free jazz we’ve heard for sure (Aquarius Records in SF)

Reissue of the legendary 5-track first LP from horn wizard & original underground FM radio DJ Young, featuring soprano sax, clarinet, and electronically-processed bass clarinet. An enjoyable outing from a neglected musician. Cosmic afro mimimal electronic winds recorded in late 1970s San Francisco.
