Jazzreloaded - How did it all begin?

 

 

UK Afro Jazz is a worldwide phenomenon.  And Jazzreloaded is a documentation of that musical journey in its myriad forms: Nu Jazz, Soul, Swing, Spoken word, Blues, Bebop, Hip Hop, Leftfield, Broken Beat, Fusion, Post Bop...and styles yet to be imagined.

Jazzreloaded  began with a chance encounter with  the legendary www.onajeallangumbs.com , performing with a certain Mr Gary Crosby and Mr Winston Clifford in a rhythm section for the magnificent Carmen Lundy.  Hearing Onjae perform that night ( as any night) inspired me to play the music I'd been hearing in my minds ear.  Something between John Williams and Jamiroquai.  Don't get get me wrong I really enjoyed Emergency On Planet Earth, but I could tell that there was more to jazz than Acid Jazz.  So I went looking for it.

Gary Crosby invited me to jam with his son Daniel, and their friends at the Rhythmic in Islington, where I met modern day jazz historians Julie Dexter, J-Life, and Robert Mitchell.  We formed a band.  A band that sounded like a band.   That band that became J-Life, and J-Life carried the torch passed on by the likes of Courtney Pine, Steve Williamson, Orphy Robinson and Julian Joseph, who I also had the extreme fortune to play with in later years.

So here I am, passing on the UK Afro Jazz torch and schooling ya about the modern day jazz historians, and making a little music as I do it.  Sketches of a dream.  I dared to dream, and now you're part of that dream.  Welcome to jazzreloaded.   Time for changes....
