Paul Hession, Simon Fell, Alan Wilkinson - Bogey's
Originally released in 1991, this live recording launched this trio with a bang. Strong, hard, inventive & witty. The original cassette version was nominated for the 1991 Mercury Music Prize (the very first year, what it was…), and the recording was subsequently reissued on CD in 1999.
Reviews
"They left the audience in a state of shock. Whiteheat improvisation, full throttle free jazz out of Archie Shepp 1969, but somehow more so: more venom, more noise, more discord, more evil heat . . . . . simultaneous musicality and cathartic excess . . . . . we are talking the essence of what makes jazz great here." THE WIRE
"Exceptional acoustic maelstrom . . . . . People who suggest that British jazz always lags behind American innovators should check this date. Their music is often categorised as 'free improvisation' but really is state-of-the-art jazz, blindingly swift and responsive." Ben Watson ARTSCENE
