Seamen, Phil

The Late Great Phil Seamen Vol. 1

The British musician Phil Seamen is undoubtedly one of Europe's greatest jazz drummers, in the same league as his contemporaries Kenny Clarke and Philly-Joe Jones. He was creative, possessed exceptional timing and had a distinctive sound all of his own. He was Ginger Baker's mentor, but above all he was a star in the 1950s. On this CD, we hear him playing in various bands, led by Jack Parnell, Victor Feldman, Ronnie Scott, Jimmy Witherspoon and many others, between 1953 and 1972. Well-remastered recordings and a splendid booklet - a must-have for jazz enthusiasts.Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
